Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what is their assessment of the recent report by Small Arms Survey<i>, Under Attack and Above Scrutiny? Arms and Ammunition Diversion from Peacekeepers in Sudan and South Sudan, 2002–14</i><i>, </i>and in particular the conclusion that "the losses of arms and ammunition by peacekeepers are larger and more frequent than previously appreciated, and can be reduced".

Officials are currently reviewing the Small Arms Survey report. We encourage the UN Department of Peacekeeping Operations to do more to tackle the losses of arms and ammunition.
