Asked

Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether she is taking steps to encourage the United Nations to assume direct operational oversight of humanitarian-aid delivery in Gaza.

I refer the Hon Member to the statement made by the Foreign Secretary to the House on 18 November 2025, regarding the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Our position remains that only the United Nations and their partners can deliver the scale of aid required.

Asked

Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps his Department is taking to help ensure that humanitarian aid is being received into the Gaza Strip.

Reply

The UK continues pushing for safe, unhindered humanitarian access to Gaza, in line with international law. A significant portion of our Financial Year 2024/25 funding has already reached Gaza, including life-saving medical supplies. Some remain prepositioned at border crossings or in regional warehouses due to access constraints. We also announced an additional £7.5 million support package to bolster medical care in Gaza and the region, including further funding for UK-Med, World Health Organization Egypt, and the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs Occupied Palestinian Territories Humanitarian Fund. On 19 May, the UK issued a joint statement urging Israel to allow full aid resumption and independent access for humanitarian actors.
