Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what representations they have made to the government of Israel concerning Israel offering refuge to Palestinians fleeing Syria.

We have not made any representations to the Government of Israel on this issue.

The UK has pledged £1billion to date – our largest ever humanitarian response to a single crisis – to provide humanitarian assistance and long-term support to hundreds of thousands of vulnerable people living in Syria and refugees across the region, which includes Palestinian refugees who have also been affected by the crisis.
