Proceeding contribution from Lord Hannay of Chiswick (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 13 April 2026. It occurred during Private notice question on Strait of Hormuz: Mine Clearance.


Strait of Hormuz: Mine Clearance

Can the Minister give us some reaction from the Government to the legality, under international law, of the action being taken by Iran to impede passage through the strait? It does not belong half to Iran and half to the Omanis; it is a strait with international waters. Can he say what action will be taken and how this affects our own involvement in future?
