To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the adequacy of defence investment into the women, peace and security agenda, following the commitments laid out in the UK women, peace and security national action plan 2023 to 2027.

The UK’s fifth National Action Plan on Women, Peace and Security recognises the disproportionate impact of conflict on women and girls and includes tangible actions across Government to promote their vital role in conflict prevention through to resolution.

The delivery of the WPS agenda is a cross government effort, with personnel across five government departments and two devolved administrations delivering on specific commitments. One year since the WPS NAP’s publication, 75% of the 117 commitments are in progress. As a joint FCDO-MOD strategy, both Departments are committed to driving forward NAP implementation, including getting 100% of commitments in progress over the next year.
