	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/10/2022 answer text <p>Following a review in December 2021, FCDO's assessment is that the Palestinian Authority (PA) demonstrates a partially credible commitment to the Partnership Principles. There is relatively strong progress on improving public financial management and a continued commitment to delivering effective services and reducing poverty, despite the challenges of the occupation. However, cases of abuses of human rights and restrictions on freedom of expression continue and there is a need for greater action to strengthen human rights protection and increase domestic accountability in areas within the PA's control. The UK continues to monitor these issues closely, and raise them at the highest levels of the PA.</p> answering member constituency Aldershot answering member printed Leo Docherty question first answered 25/10/2022 16:43:55 answering member 4600 label Biography information for Leo Docherty

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/10/2022 answer text <p>The UK Government strongly condemns all acts of terrorism and has zero tolerance towards incitement of violence. It is critical that the Palestinian leadership continue their efforts to tackle terror and incitement, strengthen institutions and develop a sustainable economy. Our partnership with the Palestinian Authority (PA) includes a commitment from the Palestinian leadership to adhere to the principle of non-violence and to tackle language and actions that could incite violence or hatred. We continue to assess the PA's commitment to peace in line with our Partnership Principles.</p> answering member constituency Aldershot answering member printed Leo Docherty question first answered 25/10/2022 16:46:53 answering member 4600 label Biography information for Leo Docherty
