Gaza: UN Commission of Inquiry Report

Contribution

My Lords, I thank my noble friend the Minister for her Answer and the indication that the Government are carefully considering the report from the United Nations which was published earlier this week. In that light, can my noble friend the Minister outline what steps the Government have taken and will take pursuant to Article 1 of the 1948 genocide convention and in compliance with the binding provisional measures ordered by the International Court of Justice on 26 January 2024 and 24 May 2024 to ensure that the slaughter of people and devastation of communities in Gaza are stopped?
