To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, how many (a) British nationals, (b) UK passport holders and (c) NHS employees were evacuated from Sudan on US Navy Ship Brunswick on 30 April 2023.

We are currently aware of 28 British nationals who departed Sudan on the USNS Brunswick on 30 April 2023, alongside a number of other nationalities. As this was not a UK-run evacuation, we are in the process of reconciling the information we hold on eligible persons in Sudan, including NHS employees, who may have departed on the Brunswick.
