answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/05/2024 answer text <p>The UK is exploring how best to support the medical needs of those in Gaza, including what options can be provided in the region.</p><p>It is ultimately at the discretion of the Israeli and Egyptian authorities who can cross the border.</p><p>The Home Office is not currently considering establishing a bespoke visa scheme for Palestinian children to receive critical medical treatment in the UK. There are provisions that allow a person to come to the UK for private medical treatment under Appendix V of the Immigration Rules. If the rules are not met, careful consideration will be given on whether a grant of leave outside of the rules would be appropriate.</p><p>Should applications be submitted from Palestinian children, who have secured permission from the Israeli and Egyptian authorities to exit Gaza, requiring specialist medical treatment they will be treated with the utmost seriousness. If that leads to the identification of specific cases in which a person would be better off making the long journey to the UK to undertake treatment, we will not rule out bringing them to British hospitals, as we have done in the past.</p> answering member constituency Corby answering member printed Tom Pursglove question first answered 21/05/2024 15:04:35 answering member 4369 label Biography information for Tom Pursglove
