Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, how much funding from UK sources is estimated to become available to Iran following the signing of the nuclear deal and sanctions relief.
We expect that approximately £657,830,000 of Iranian assets in the UK have been unfrozen following Implementation Day of the nuclear deal on 16 January, when the International Atomic Energy Agency reported that Iran had taken all the necessary steps to trigger the lifting of nuclear-related financial and economic sanctions against Iran.
