Baroness Blackstone (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 10 February 2025

Debate

Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories

Contribution

My Lords, I congratulate the Government on their decision to spend an extra £17 million to support the needs of Gazans for food, housing and shelter. Will he tell the House how that £17 million is going to be spent, particularly in the absence of UNRWA, which has disgracefully been denied its continued operation in East Jerusalem? If there are no other agencies with the right experience to deliver that aid, it is hard to think how Gazans are going to get it.
