Homosexuality remains a taboo subject in the OPTs. In some places, such as Ramallah, these taboos are relaxed, but in more conservative areas the situation is very challenging. There are no laws protecting LGBT people, however we are not aware of any recent legal cases being prosecuted against LGBT people.</p> answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 21/09/2015 14:50:51 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/10/2015 answer text The UK Government regularly receives reports on the situation in Yemen through a variety of sources including diplomatic engagement with key parties to the conflict, other governments, international non-governmental organisations and UN agencies. The Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my right hon. Friend the Member for Runnymede and Weybridge (Mr Hammond) met President Hadi on 28 September during the United Nations General Assembly and discussed the ongoing conflict. The Prime Minister’s Special Envoy to Yemen, Sir Alan Duncan, visited Saudi Arabia, Oman and the UAE in September. During his visit, he met representatives of the Government of Yemen as well as officials from countries participating in the military coalition. The situation in Yemen remains critical and risks becoming a prolonged conflict with catastrophic humanitarian consequences. We remain fully committed to a finding a political solution to the crisis and continue to urge the parties to the conflict to return to negotiations, and to facilitate access for humanitarian aid and commercial goods. To tackle the humanitarian crisis, the UK has so far announced £75 million – through UN agencies and humanitarian NGOs - to support Yemenis affected by the crisis, including those forced to flee their homes, with emergency shelter, healthcare, water and food assistance, as well as supporting UN work to co-ordinate the humanitarian response. answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 12/10/2015 13:22:12 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood
