Palestinian families have been denied family reunification, and that has been found to be unlawful in the courts. Those families include those of Obaida and Mahmoud, two boys who, last year, met the former Prime Minister, who promised to do everything that he could to ensure that their families were...

As the Foreign Secretary set out on 8 September, the Government's official view is that Israel's occupation is unlawful. Consistent with this, the Government will continue to distinguish between Israel within its internationally recognised borders and the territory that Israel has occupied since 1967. The Foreign Secretary set out on 8 September that we will now in addition refuse all licence applications for arms and other exports that materially contribute to the occupation. He also set out our belief that the unlawfulness of the occupation should be reflected in the economic relationships we choose to have with the occupied territories and announced a series of measures including an import ban on goods from illegal settlements.

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he has discussed the Balfour Declaration of 1917 with his Israeli counterpart in the context of Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories since 8 September 2026.
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he has discussed the Balfour Declaration of 1917 with his Israeli counterpart in the context of Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories since 8 September 2026.
The Foreign Secretary has not discussed the Balfour Declaration with his Israeli counterpart since 8 September 2026. The Government continues to engage regularly with the Government of Israel on issues relating to illegal settlement expansion and settler violence terrorism. The UK's position remains that settlements are illegal under international law and undermine the viability of a two-state solution. I refer the honourable member to the Foreign Secretary's statement on the 8 September.

Israeli settlements in the West Bank are illegal and undermine prospects for a two-state solution. We have regularly raised our concerns with the Government of Israel and called for an end to its expansion of settlements and to ensure accountability for settler violence and settler terrorism. As the Foreign Secretary set out in his statement of 8 September, the official view of the British Government is that the Israeli occupation is unlawful, because of entrenchment of its control, its intention to extend permanent sovereignty and its expansionist agenda via illegal settlements.

Premier League football clubs are private entities and any business sponsorship arrangements are a matter for them. The UK remains of the firm view that the two-state solution is the best means to secure lasting peace, security and prosperity for Israelis and Palestinians. We are clear that Israeli settlements in the West Bank are illegal under international law and undermine the viability of a two-state solution. On 8 September the Foreign Secretary announced a series of measures aimed at those who finance or facilitate illegal settlement expansion.

A reformed Palestinian Authority (PA) is essential to long-term stability in the region and progressing towards a two-state solution. We welcome the Palestinian Authority's commitment, underlined in the UK-PA Memorandum of Understanding, to reform prisoner payments so that welfare payments are based on needs and not linked to acts of violence. The audit has been completed. We await full publication of the audit so that this can be verified.
To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Chapman of Darlington on 31 October 2025 (HL10877), whether they still regard ending the Palestinian Authority's payments to prisoners and to the families of those killed while carrying out attacks against Israelis as a precondition for full diplomatic relations...

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the effect of (1) the measures taken by the government of Israel in response to the sanctions they imposed on settlements in the West Bank, and (2) those sanctions on Palestinian workers in the settlements.
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the effect of (1) the measures taken by the government of Israel in response to the sanctions they imposed on settlements in the West Bank, and (2) those sanctions on Palestinian workers in the settlements.
The response of the Government of Israel to the sanctions announced on 8 September by the Foreign Secretary is deeply regrettable. The measures taken will target illegal settlement activity, violence and extremism. Palestinian businesses will continue to benefit from preferential trade arrangements. Our focus is on ensuring we can continue our diplomatic work and support efforts towards a two-state solution. The UK will continue acting in line with our values, and keeps all our sanctions regimes and their impact and effectiveness under review. We will update the House further on these measures.

The UK formally recognised the State of Palestine on 21 September 2025. The UK recognises Palestinian statehood over provisional borders, based on the 1967 lines subject to agreed land swaps, to be finalised through future negotiations. The UK remains of the firm view that the two-state solution is the best means to secure lasting peace, security and prosperity for both Israelis and Palestinians.
