<p>a) The UK will work with Israel, the Palestinian Authority, other donors and the
Office of the Quartet to provide a sustainable electricity supply to Gaza. This requires
greater domestic electricity capacity and energy imports from Israel and Egypt as
well as institutional reform.</p><p> </p><p>b) My officials and I regularly raise
the issuance of medical permits. I most recently raised our concerns about the situation
in Gaza with the office for the Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories
(COGAT) in May. We hold regular discussions with the Palestinian Ministry of Health
on their plans to respond to the immediate needs in the health sector in Gaza.</p><p>
</p><p>c) DFID enables <strong>reconstruction</strong> efforts in Gaza through our
support to the Materials Monitoring Unit of the Gaza <strong>Reconstruction</strong>
Mechanism, which monitors the import, storage, supply and use of construction materials.
The UK continues to call for a more comprehensive lifting of movement and access restrictions
through a political agreement as the only long-term solution to construction efforts.</p>
