answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2023 answer text <p>We are in regular contact with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) on the full range of issues relating to Syrian refugees in not just Turkey and Lebanon, but also across the region. Whilst we hope that Syrian refugees will ultimately be able to return home, we agree with the UN judgement that conditions in Syria do not currently allow this. The UK continues to work with UNHCR to ensure that any returns adhere to international standards and are safe, voluntary and dignified.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 24/07/2023 15:48:47 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
