It is recognised across HMG that, for example, the exchange of gifts and hospitality have long been an important part of building relations, particularly overseas. The motorsport industry provides significant economic opportunities for the UK, generating over £10 billion in revenue each year, and UK Ambassadors to Bahrain and Saudi Arabia have regularly attended F1 events as part of their official duties. Offers of gifts or hospitality to FCDO officials are recorded and regularly audited under our management assurance processes.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 30/04/2024 14:41:49 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

The Deputy Foreign Secretary spoke to The Gambia's Foreign Minister on 9 April and met with the Minister for Public Services on 29 April, to relay the UK's deep concern about the progress in The Gambia's National Assembly of the bill that would legalise FGM. He highlighted the serious implications if the bill were to become law, including for The Gambia's international reputation. The UK continues to engage broadly through regular contact with senior Gambian Government officials and other stakeholders. We are working with international partners to coordinate and complement messaging and activity.</p> answering member printed Lord Benyon question first answered 30/04/2024 16:29:53 answering member 1547 label Biography information for Lord Benyon

Social media platforms decide whether or not content is a breach of their terms of service and, if so, what action to take.</p> answering member printed Viscount Camrose question first answered 30/04/2024 14:51:22 answering member 4939 label Biography information for Viscount Camrose
