Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Beccy Cooper and Hamish Falconer

Tuesday 2nd December 2025 Commons Chamber

[Mr Falconer]

I am familiar with the case that the hon. Member mentions. On all the other detention cases in Iran, we are working to ensure that those individuals have full access to consular assistance where they need it, as British nationals have across the world.

[Dr Beccy Cooper (Worthing West) (Lab)]

T9. We know that our official development assistance budget is currently reduced to allow for defence investment, but given the continuing need to improve global health, not least to guarantee our own health and security, will the Minister meet me and other concerned colleagues to discuss how best to continue to protect lifesaving health programmes and the work with women and girls that she has rightly prioritised?
