Debate

Middle East

Contribution

My Lords, the Minister mentioned the £10 million extra funding that will go to the Palestinian Authority. Can he explain why this Government are making that payment without first requiring the Palestinian Authority to comply with the demands of this country, the EU and the United States to address governance concerns so as to remove not just inefficiency but corruption, and why we are paying that money when the Palestinian Authority refuses to abandon its outrageous policy of paying the families of convicted murderers?
