To ask His Majesty's Government what recent assessment they have made of the Palestinian Authority’s commitment to democratic reform.

A reformed Palestinian Authority is essential to long-term stability in the region and making progress towards a two-state solution. The UK welcomes the Palestinian Authority's commitment to deliver its ambitious and necessary 'National Program for Development and Reform' in full as a matter of priority in the short, medium and long term. We welcome President Abbas' commitment to hold Presidential and Legislative elections within a year to be conducted under international auspices, supervision and support. Alongside our partners, the UK will continue to support the Palestinian Authority as it delivers its important reform agenda, including on democratic reform.
