South Sudan: Armed Conflict
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Wednesday 1st May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of the war in Sudan on South Sudan, including (1) the numbers of displaced people and refugees, and (2) the impact on its economy caused by the loss of receipts from the export of oil. Answered by Lord Benyon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The UK recognises the significant pressure that the Sudan crisis is putting on South Sudan and commends them for their support to the over 630,000 people that have crossed the border since the start of the conflict. Disruption to the oil pipeline has reduced the South Sudanese government's oil production capabilities and subsequently their income, causing inflationary pressures and an increase in food prices - the UK Government continues to monitor the economic situation closely. South Sudan is facing its own humanitarian crisis, exacerbated by the Sudan conflict, with 9 million people expected to need humanitarian assistance in 2024. The UK has allocated £7.75 million to support existing and new Sudanese refugees, as well as vulnerable returnees and host communities in South Sudan. |

Sexual Dysfunction: Prescription Drugs
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Monday 29th April 2024 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask His Majesty's Government how many prescriptions for amitriptyline, imipramine and atomoxetine were issued in each year since 2014; how many Yellow Card reports of sexual dysfunction and persistent sexual dysfunction the MHRA has received for each of these drugs in each year since 2014; and whether they will ensure that persistent sexual dysfunction is listed as a side effect in the patient information leaflets for each these drugs. Answered by Lord Markham - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care) Over the next year, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) plans to review the risk of sexual dysfunction and whether these side effects persist for all antidepressants marketed in the United Kingdom. As a result of the review product information will be updated, as necessary, and consideration will be given to whether additional risk minimisation measures are needed. The following table shows the total number of items in each calendar year between 2014 and 2023, as well as January 2024:
Data Source: NHS Business Services Authority Open Data Portal, PCA data The MHRA has received a total of 38 Yellow Card reports of sexual dysfunction related reactions suspected to be associated with amitriptyline, atomoxetine, and imipramine. Of these, 8 were for amitriptyline, 21 for atomoxetine, and 2 for imipramine. ‘Persistent sexual dysfunction’ does not represent a specific medical condition. The following table shows a summary of these side effects listed in the product information:

The Gambia: Female Genital Mutilation
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Tuesday 30th April 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government whether they are working with the United Nations and World Health Organisation in their efforts to strengthen laws and policies to protect women and girls from female genital mutilation in The Gambia, as committed to in the International Women and Girls Strategy 2023 to 2030. Answered by Lord Benyon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The UK's position is clear that female genital mutilation (FGM) is a human rights violation. The Deputy Foreign Secretary spoke to The Gambia's Foreign Minister on 9 April and met with the Minister for Public Services on 29 April, to relay the UK's deep concern about the progress in The Gambia's National Assembly of the bill that would legalise FGM. He highlighted the serious implications if the bill were to become law, including for The Gambia's international reputation. The UK continues to engage broadly through regular contact with senior Gambian Government officials and other stakeholders. We are working with international partners to coordinate and complement messaging and activity. |

Sudan: Humanitarian Situation
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Thursday 2nd May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the statement by the World Food Programme that the situation in Sudan is “catastrophic” and that it is currently only able to reach 10 per cent of the population; and what discussions they have had with those blocking access. Answered by Lord Benyon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The UK strongly condemns the decision on 21 February by the Sudanese Armed Forces to withdraw permission for cross-border deliveries of humanitarian aid from Adré, Chad. The UK continues to press the warring parties to facilitate unhindered, crossline and cross-border humanitarian access across Sudan. In 2024/2025, UK ODA to Sudan will nearly double to £89 million. This includes funding to UNICEF, providing emergency, life-saving food assistance to support people particularly in hard-to reach areas; and the World Food Programme to assist over 285,000 beneficiaries for six months by providing 13,405 tons of food commodities including cereals, pulses, oils and salt. On 8 March, the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) adopted UK-drafted Resolution 2724 calling for an immediate cessation of hostilities and unhindered humanitarian access. |

Iraq: Turkey
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Thursday 2nd May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they have had, if any, with the government of Turkey, in relation to Turkish military attacks on Sinjar. Answered by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The UK recognises Turkey's right to self-defence, while fully supporting Iraq's territorial integrity. We encourage restraint from activity that could lead to loss of civilian life, or damage to civilian infrastructure. It is critical that Turkey and Iraq reach a way to address security concerns that does not lead to regional instability. We welcome recent high-level engagement between both countries, including President Erdoğan's visit to Iraq on 22 April. As a close NATO ally, we regularly engage Turkey on regional stability. Most recently, the UK National Security Advisor discussed this issue with his Turkish counterpart in London on 11 April. |

Iraq: Politics and Government
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Thursday 2nd May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the security situation in Sinjar. Answered by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The UK regularly engages with the Government of Iraq and the Kurdish Regional Government (KRG) on the security situation in Sinjar, and we continue to advocate for the implementation of the Sinjar Agreement. Progress on this has been hindered by numerous factors, including tensions between the Government of Iraq and the KRG and the extremely complex politics of the region. We encourage both governments to agree a candidate to appoint as mayor of Sinjar, an important and necessary step to improve the security situation and lives of people living there. |

Ukraine: Crimes against Humanity
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Wednesday 1st May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government whether they are planning to introduce legislation to amend the International Criminal Court Act 2001 to enable UK courts to prosecute non-citizens and non-residents for crimes against humanity, war crimes or genocide in Ukraine. Answered by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The UK legal system is built on the tradition that, as a general rule, the authorities of the State in whose territory an offence is committed are best placed to prosecute the crime. However, universal jurisdiction applies to torture and other grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions. It is a decision for the independent prosecuting authorities whether to prosecute such an offence. The UK remains committed to holding perpetrators of war crimes in Ukraine to account, including through our support to the International Criminal Court. We have also delivered a £6.2 million package to support Ukraine's domestic investigations and prosecutions. |

Ukraine: War Crimes
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Wednesday 1st May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government whether they intend to propose legislation to ensure that the UK is not a safe haven for perpetrators of war crimes in Ukraine. Answered by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The UK legal system is built on the tradition that, as a general rule, the authorities of the State in whose territory an offence is committed are best placed to prosecute the crime. However, universal jurisdiction applies to torture and other grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions. It is a decision for the independent prosecuting authorities whether to prosecute such an offence. The UK remains committed to holding perpetrators of war crimes in Ukraine to account, including through our support to the International Criminal Court.

Sudan: Humanitarian Aid
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Wednesday 1st May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government how quickly their decision to increase humanitarian aid for war victims in Sudan will be made available; what it will be used for; and how it will be deployed. Answered by Lord Benyon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) We are providing £89 million for this financial year. The vast majority of this will go towards humanitarian support. This will include funding to UNICEF which will provide emergency and life-saving food assistance to support people particularly in hard-to reach areas in Sudan, including nutrition, water and hygiene services for 500,000 children under five. Current access into Sudan remains highly constrained and our top humanitarian priority remains securing immediate humanitarian access and operational security guarantees for humanitarian agencies. |

Sudan: Food Supply
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Wednesday 1st May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what estimate they have made of the number of people who are dying of hunger or who are food insecure in Sudan. Answered by Lord Benyon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) In Sudan 17.7 million people (37 percent of the population) are now thought to be experiencing acute food insecurity. This is likely to worsen in the coming months in parts of West Darfur, Khartoum, and among the displaced population more broadly. In 2024/2025, we are providing £89 million for Sudan, which will include assistance to address food insecurity. |

Ukraine: War Crimes
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Wednesday 1st May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what consideration they have given to the potential of an international tribunal for delivering reparations to victims of the war in Ukraine. Answered by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The UK is committed to holding Russia to account for its actions in Ukraine and making Russia pay for the damage. We continue to engage in the Core Group established to explore options for a Special Tribunal on the Crime of Aggression. We support exploring the creation of an internationalised tribunal, rooted in Ukraine's jurisdiction, with international elements. Our support to the International Criminal Court and the Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine is also ongoing. Alongside the EU and US, the UK has launched the Atrocity Crimes Advisory Group to support Ukraine's domestic prosecutions of war crimes. |

Drugs: Smuggling
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Thursday 2nd May 2024 Question to the Home Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the production and distribution of illicit drugs from China, especially synthetic opioids such as nitazenes; and what estimate they have made of scale on which such drugs are smuggled into the UK. Answered by Lord Sharpe of Epsom - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office) Tackling Class A drugs, including synthetic opioids, is a priority for the Government due to the harm caused to users, society and the economy. We assess that the scale of trafficking of synthetic opioids into the UK remains small, relative to countries like the USA where they have caused devastation. However, nitazenes, which the National Crime Agency (NCA) assess as often being produced in illicit labs in China, have been linked to more than 100 deaths in the UK during the last year, and we are taking action. The cross-Government Synthetic Opioids Taskforce is working with partner agencies, such as the NCA, the Department for Health and Social Care and the National Police Chiefs Council to deliver an evidence-based response to the risk posed by synthetic opioids, and to implement effective action to stem the demand and supply of these dangerous substances. |

Drugs: Smuggling
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Tuesday 7th May 2024 Question to the Home Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of reports that online sales representatives, working for illicit Chinese pharmaceutical and chemical companies, are producing and smuggling illegal drugs into the UK, what action they are taking to combat the sale and advertisement of such drugs on the internet, and what response they have received from any representations they have made to the government of China in this regard. Answered by Lord Sharpe of Epsom - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office) Illicit production of synthetic drugs is a growing global concern, and we assess that criminal groups involved in illicit production are present in numerous countries around the world, including China. UK law enforcement agencies regularly engage with counterparts in countries where websites supplying and advertising illicit drugs are hosted. We have provided additional resources to the National Crime Agency (NCA) and Home Office international networks in key source and transit countries to work with other governments to identify and disrupt criminal groups who seek to exploit the UK. We are also working closely with partners to monitor developments in source countries, to assess how changes are likely to affect the drugs threat to the UK. With regards to action being taken to combat the sale of illicit drugs on the internet, our Online Safety Act will introduce measures requiring platforms to remove content relating to the sale of illegal drugs online and prevent users from being exposed to it. If they fail to comply, they risk stiff financial penalties or in the most serious cases, having their sites blocked by the independent regulator, Ofcom. Additionally, the NCA, along with policing colleagues across the UK target key offenders operating online and work to ensure they have the resources and powers they need to keep our country safe. For example, proposals are being taken forward in the Criminal Justice Bill to create a new power enabling law enforcement to suspend IP addresses and/or domain names being used for criminal purpose, including the sale of illicit drugs. This new power will allow agencies to obtain a court order to formally request action by organisations both domestically and outside of the UK. |

Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office: Ministers
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Thursday 9th May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what steps the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office are taking to ensure transparency in relation to ministerial recusals. Answered by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) Under the terms of the Ministerial Code, Ministers must ensure that no conflict arises, or could reasonably be perceived to arise, between their ministerial position and their private interests, financial or otherwise. There is an established regime in place for the declaration and management of interests held by ministers. This ensures that steps are taken to avoid or mitigate any potential or perceived conflicts of interest. Interests judged, by the Independent Adviser on Ministers' Interests, to be relevant to a ministerial role are published in the List of Ministers' Interests, which is available on GOV.UK. As set out in the Ministerial Code, it is the personal responsibility of each Minister to decide whether and what action is needed to avoid a conflict or the perception of a conflict, taking account of advice received from their Permanent Secretary and the Independent Adviser on Ministers' interests. |

AUKUS
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Thursday 9th May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions the Foreign Secretary has had with the Ministry of Defence regarding future expansion of Pillar II of the AUKUS agreement. Answered by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The Foreign and Defence Secretaries regularly discuss AUKUS. For example, they did so during their joint visit to Australia in March ahead of the announcement on 8 April that AUKUS partners will undertake consultations in 2024 with others regarding engagement in individual Pillar II (advanced military capabilities) projects, including actively considering collaboration with Japan. |

Ministers: Conflict of Interests
Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Thursday 9th May 2024 Question to the Cabinet Office: To ask His Majesty's Government whether they will publish the guidance provided to Ministers on recusing themselves from decision making; and what plans they have, if any, to review that guidance. Answered by Baroness Neville-Rolfe - Minister of State (Cabinet Office) As set out in the Ministerial Code, there is an established regime in place for the declaration and management of interests held by ministers. This ensures that steps are taken to avoid or mitigate any potential or perceived conflicts of interest. Under the terms of the Ministerial Code Ministers must ensure that no conflict arises or could reasonably be perceived to arise, between their ministerial position and their private interests, financial or otherwise. The Ministerial Code is the responsibility of the Prime Minister. There are no current plans to update the Ministerial interests’ provisions in the Code. Chapter 7 of the Ministerial Code provides detail on the procedure ministers must follow regarding their private interests. In particular it states, “it is the personal responsibility of each Minister to decide whether and what action is needed to avoid a conflict or the perception of a conflict”. More information about the process by which ministerial interests are managed is available in the Annual Report of the Independent Adviser on Ministers’ Interests and the List of Ministers Interests. These are available on GOV.UK.

Asked by: Lord Alton of Liverpool (Crossbench - Life peer) Thursday 9th May 2024 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they have taken in response to the issuing of practice recommendations to the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office by the Information Commissioner’s Office, following its assessment that the information request handling processes of that department "do not conform to parts 1, 4 and 5 of the section 45 Freedom of Information Code of Practice". Answered by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The FCDO takes its responsibilities under the Freedom of Information Act very seriously and will continue to strive to answer Freedom of Information (FOI) requests within the required timescales. We welcome the Information Commissioner's Office's (ICO) Practice Recommendations and have agreed to publish a full response by the 31 May 2024 as requested. We are considering all of their recommendations and are constructing a detailed implementation plan to improve our timeliness. |
