Written Answers
Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office: Dismissal Asked by: Baroness Hayter of Kentish Town (Labour - Life peer) Monday 20th October 2025 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Chapman of Darlington on 9 April (HL5959), what progress has been made in identifying and possibly contacting civil servants dismissed from the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office as a result of the then-ban on homosexuals serving in the Diplomatic Service. Answered by Baroness Chapman of Darlington - Minister of State (Development) The Cabinet Office is continuing to review this matter, given the wider implications beyond former Foreign & Commonwealth Office staff, and they will update Parliament on the outcome in due course.
Gaza: Genocide Convention Asked by: Baroness Primarolo (Labour - Life peer) Tuesday 7th October 2025 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the remarks by Baroness Chapman of Darlington on 18 September (HL Deb col 2400), whether they will approach the relevant international court to seek a determination as to whether Israel has committed genocide in Gaza. Answered by Baroness Chapman of Darlington - Minister of State (Development) As I told the House of Lords on 18 September, the International Court of Justice is currently considering a case brought under the Genocide Convention in respect of Israel's conduct in Gaza. This case is currently ongoing, and the UK fully respects the independence of the International Court of Justice (ICJ). In the meantime, as I also made clear, our approach to genocide determination does not prevent us from taking action on the situation in the State of Palestine. We have been clear that we strongly oppose the expansion of Israel's operations in Gaza, that Israel must do much more to protect civilians, that Palestinian territory must not be reduced nor subjected to any demographic change and that Israel must immediately lift its restrictions on aid.
