Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what steps the Government is taking to ensure that barriers to economic participation for refugees are included as part of discussion during the upcoming 2019 London Initiative on 28 February 2019.

The London Initiative will aim to boost sustainable and inclusive business-led economic growth in Jordan. A core strand of the Initiative and its implementation will focus on reforms to increase workforce participation for all, particularly from women, youth and refugees.
