Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if the UK will encourage allocation of resources for Ukraine local government support at the forthcoming Ukraine Recovery Conference in Gdansk.

The UK remains steadfast in our support to Ukraine, having provided £21.8 billion in military and non-military assistance since the start of the full scale invasion. This includes support for Ukraine's recovery and reconstruction, including through our £5.3 billion of non-military support, covering fiscal, humanitarian, energy, stabilisation, reform, and economic and social recovery. We will continue to work with Ukraine and international partners, including via the Ukraine Donor Platform and the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Gdansk, to help mobilise finance for a sustainable and locally led recovery, including by supporting stronger regional and local capacity and work on project preparation to help speed up the development of shovel ready infrastructure projects.
