answer text <p>The UK will consider all options available to it under domestic and international law in responding to cyber attacks by state actors. For UN Security Council sanctions to be agreed, resolutions require 9 votes in favour and no P5 veto. We are also working with the EU on a 'Framework for a Joint EU Diplomatic Response to Malicious Cyber Activity', which will state the range of diplomatic, political and economic measures available to the EU and Member States to combat state sanctioned cyber attacks. This includes Sanctions.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Secretary General's official residence is fully maintained and allowance is made in the existing Secretariat budget to provide ongoing general maintenance. It is customary to refurbish the premises on the appointment of a new Secretary General, thus giving a cycle of approximately eight years. The budget for the renovation of the official residence was agreed by the Board of Governors at its meeting in June 2015, before the appointment of Baroness Scotland. Nevertheless, we welcome the Secretary General's statement that &quot;any work on Hill Street must represent value for money and no extravagance&quot;.</p> more like this

answer text <p>We support the work of the Commonwealth Secretariat. We expect the Secretariat to use any funding we provide efficiently and effectively in line with its agreed budget, financial procedures and priorities. In addition to external audit, the Secretariat's budget is assessed by the Commonwealth's Executive Committee (ExCo) and Board of Governors. The UK is a member of both groups, represented by the UK's Commonwealth Envoy. Through attendance at these meetings we ensure that UK funds are allocated and spent in an efficient and transparent manner. We are committed to supporting the Secretary General's efforts to reform and revitalise the Commonwealth Secretariat and to working with her and our Commonwealth partners to strengthen the organisation.</p> more like this

answer text <p>We are in close contact with the French about the proposed conference in Paris next month. We share the frustration at the lack of progress in the Middle East Peace Process. We believe that peace will ultimately only come through negotiations between the parties. Regional players, the EU and the Quartet can play a role in supporting progress.</p> more like this

answer text <p>We are strongly opposed to any attempts to change the facts on the ground in the West Bank by increasing the number of settlers living there. Such acts raise tensions and undermine prospects for peace. During my visit to Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories between 5-8 October, I discussed my strong concerns about the issue of settlements and land expropriation with the Israeli Justice Minister on 6 October. Discussions are continuing in Brussels on how the EU can best discourage settlement expansion, and the UK is working closely with other Member States to that end.</p> more like this
