War Crimes: Gaza

Question

To ask the Attorney General, whether she has written to the Prime Minister on Gaza and war crimes since 1 April 2024.

Answer

I cannot answer your question as to do so would be in breach of the Law Officers’ Convention.

Paragraph 2.13 of the Ministerial Code clearly states that the fact that the Law Officers have advised or have not advised and the content of their advice must not be disclosed outside Government without their authority.
