The UK has been at the forefront of the response to the crisis in Syria and the region and has pledged over £1 billion, our largest ever response to a single humanitarian crisis. The UK has allocated £519 million to support refugees in the region and vulnerable host communities to date, including £279 million in Lebanon and £183 million in Jordan. Whilst addressing the immediate needs of refugees and vulnerable members of host communities, UK aid is also supporting their longer term resilience and stability through funding to Lebanese and Jordanian municipalities for the running of essential public services, such as education.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The UK is also supporting the No Lost Generation Initiative in support of Syrian children across the region and funding to UNICEF includes the construction and refurbishment of schools, the provision of school supplies, psycho-social support to children and incentives for Syrian teachers both in camps and in host communities. However, the decision to what extent Syrian teachers can be involved in the provision of education is determined by host Governments.<\/p>

There was no partial embargo imposed in 2014 on military supplies and equipment for Israel. However, a review of licences in circulation at the outbreak of hostilities in July 2014 identified 12 export licences the Government would suspend, as a precautionary measure, in the event of a resumption of significant hostilities. The Government was concerned that in these circumstances it would be unable to clarify whether the export licensing criteria were being met. This was announced on 12 August 2014.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The results of a further review were announced on 14 July 2015 (https://www.gov.uk/government/news/review-of-export-licensing-procedures-for-israel<\/a>) and concluded that 11 months after the establishment of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, there was now sufficient information from a wide variety of sources to apply standard export licensing procedures using the Consolidated EU and National Arms Export Licensing Criteria without any additional measures such as the precautionary measure adopted in August 2014.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The specific details of the review were not considered by the Cabinet. This is because export licensing policy is set by the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills. In setting this policy the Secretary of State always seeks and takes into account advice from other Cabinet colleagues, including the Foreign and Defence Secretaries.<\/p>

I apologise for the late reply to your question. This is due to the rapid pace of development of the EU response to the migration crisis currently facing the European Union, as demonstrated by the convening of a further extraordinary JHA Council meeting on 22 September.<\/p>

The Luxembourg Presidency of the European Union convened the extraordinary meeting of the Justice and Home Affairs (JHA) Council on 14 September in Brussels in response to a joint request that My Right Honourable Friend the Home Secretary (Theresa May MP) made with the French and German Interior Ministers. A further extraordinary meeting of the JHA Council was held on 22 September. The Home Secretary attended both meetings on behalf of the United Kingdom.<\/p>

My Rt Hon Friend the Home Secretary will write to the Chairman of the European Scrutiny Committee, and to his counterpart in the European Union Committee, setting out the key decisions taken, and the interventions that my Rt. Hon Friend made, at the Extraordinary JHA Councils that took place on 14 and 22 September. A copy of these letters will be placed in the House library. Additionally, the Commission\u2019s Migration Package has been deposited for scrutiny by both Houses.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1091", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Bates"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Bates"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2015-09-30", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2015-09-30T16:05:21.317Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2015-09-08", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "EU Immigration"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty\u2019s Government what representations they plan to make to European Union ministers at the 14 September meeting on EU migration; and whether they plan to make representations on the issue of co-operation between EU member states, including those outside the Euro or Schengen areas.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/2018", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Hylton"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Hylton"} ], "uin" : "HL2070"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/417475", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for International Development"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/417475/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The UK has allocated £500 million to support Syrian refugees in the region, the majority of who live in host communities. Our support has reached hundreds of thousands of people in Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Iraq and Egypt and helped host governments deal with the influx of refugees. As well as meeting immediate needs of refugees and vulnerable members of host communities, we are helping build the longer term resilience of refugees through funding to local municipalities for essential public services, such as education. Syrian refugees in Tunisia are being supported by UNHCR.<\/p>
