9 Jun 2026International Development Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 156)

Itay, we get that, thank you. To follow up on that last question—I think this is pretty obvious, but it would still be nice to hear from you—how will the E1 settlement affect displacement across the West Bank?

If I could go back to one question that has not been covered and I think is quite important, Itay, could you give us a figure for the number of Israelis that are anticipated to move into the E1 settlement?

The next question is for Ori, if I may, but the rest of you may want to answer as well. How have Bedouin communities been affected by settler violence?

9 Jun 2026International Development Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 156)

The next question is: what is the ongoing impact of settler violence and forcible transfer on Palestinian families in the West Bank? I think that you have answered that, in a way, but you might like to elaborate.

Okay. Are there any organisations capable of filling the void left by UNRWA?

Thank you. Are you able to send us a copy of the report that you mentioned?

You can go into whatever detail you want to on this next question, but I appreciate it may be difficult, in which case you may want to put it in writing. Does sexual violence play a role in settler violence?

9 Jun 2026International Development Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 156)

Allegra, I am going to start with a simple question, which you may want to elaborate on, and on which we have already heard quite a lot. Then I want to go into some detailed questioning. First, to what extend does settler violence continue across the West Bank?

Thank you, Ben. A number of us actually visited your former headquarters, so we can appreciate what you have lost. Can you just outline how you have adapted to these circumstances?

3 Jun 2026Lebanon: Israel Defence Forces Operations

With the world on fire, with war and climate change and with diseases such as Ebola stalking Africa again, will the Government reconfirm their commitment to returning aid spending to 0.7% of GNI and to not cutting it below 0.3% of GNI?

2 Jun 2026International Development Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 206)

I have spent quite a lot of my life as an aid worker. What I found, working with communities that had the biggest need, was that they also had the biggest desire to solve the problem, if you could hook into that, empower them and make it real that they could solve those problems. That, of course, rather flies in the fa

Deborah, many years ago I was working in Honduras, but I was a little further over, working with some communities with the Save the Children Fund. It was working with coffee on big plantations. The men would work for maybe three months of the year to pick the coffee and then, if they were lucky, they would get work dow

1 Jun 2026 Health Bill

All of us want to see a better NHS, but there is a profound contradiction at the heart of the Bill: the Government are handing ICBs more responsibility and authority with one hand while cutting them off at the knees with the other. ICBs are being merged, clustered and completely reorganised with no idea of what the lan

28 Apr 2026International Development Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1225)

The second part of the question is perhaps a challenge. Women and girls bear the biggest burden of poor WASH access. Is that another example of the Department’s rhetoric on prioritising women and girls being undermined?

We saw a very good example of the work you had been doing with the school and clinic we visited, although I appreciate that it probably will not be repeated.
