Yemen

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, how many (a) UK and (b) locally-engaged personnel are working for the UK Government in Yemen.

The safety and security of our staff overseas is our priority. I should like to assure the right hon. Member that due to the fluid political and security situation in Yemen we regularly review our staffing levels. But for security reasons we do not comment on staff numbers.
