To ask the Minister of State, Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, when he plans to respond to Questions 8440, 8441 and 8442 on Israel:Gaza tabled on 8 January 2024 by the hon. Member for Middlesbrough.

I am writing to the honourable member separately on this matter. We are working hard to respond to these questions as quickly as possible, and apologise for the delay in doing so, which in no way reflects an unwillingness to answer these questions. Rather, these questions cover subjects which are dynamic and fast moving, and necessarily require detailed work to ensure a complete, accurate and up-to-date response in the context of fast-moving developments.
