Gaza: Humanitarian Aid

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment she has made of trends in the level of aid entering Gaza on a daily basis; and what steps her Department is taking to increase the flow of aid.

Answer

I refer the Hon Member to the statement made to the House by the Foreign Secretary on 9 June, where - in setting out the action being taken by the UK in response to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza - she said that barely half the level of the 4,200 trucks a week promised in the 20-point Peace Plan are currently entering Gaza.
