Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether the formal mechanisms set out in section 2 of the International Criminal Court Act 2001 have been triggered in relation to the arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu issued by the International Criminal Court on 21 November 2024.

If the UK receives a request for arrest and surrender or a request for provisional arrest from the International Criminal Court (ICC) for an indicted individual who is visiting the UK, then these warrants will go into a domestic legal progress. It is this process through our independent courts that determines whether or not to endorse, or issue, the warrant in accordance with the UK's ICC Act 2001.
