Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office written question – answered at on 26 February 2025.
Lord Roberts of Llandudno
Liberal Democrat
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the halting of the manufacture of Captagon in Syria.
Lord Collins of Highbury
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office), Deputy Leader of the House of Lords, Lord in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip), Lords Spokesperson (Equalities)
We assess that Captagon production and supply chains inside Syria have decreased significantly since the fall of the Asad regime. However, illicit smuggling networks continue to operate across the Syria-Jordan border. We are working with international partners to raise awareness of and tackle the threats posed by the Captagon industry in the Middle East region.
