answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/07/2017 answer text <p>​It is important that credible allegations of violations of international humanitarian law (IHL) are investigated and the Saudi-led Coalition has committed to doing this. The UK has not been directly involved in investigations undertaken by the Joint Incident Assessment Team, but has supported its development and delivered two training sessions in Saudi Arabia on the process for investigating alleged IHL violations. The UK continues to believe that the Coalition has the best insight into its own military procedures and will be able to conduct the most thorough and conclusive investigations. The Coalition has publicly stated that any lessons learned will be acted upon.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 05/07/2017 14:18:35 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
