Speaking in the House of Commons on 18 December 2024

Debate

Financial Assistance to Ukraine Bill

Contribution

A number of hon. Members asked about asset seizures. I have set out the Government’s position on that, but I can reassure the House that although this Bill is not about seizure of assets, the Government and our allies continue to keep all available opportunities under review so that we can pursue lawful avenues to ensure that Russia pays for the damage it has caused. My hon. Friends the Members for Cowdenbeath and Kirkcaldy and for Hexham raised the Homes for Ukraine scheme and visas. I assure them that I will pass those points to my colleagues in the Home Office to consider and respond to in due course.
