Mitchell said he hoped funding could be restored by April, but assured MPs that UNRWA has enough money to ensure “adequate supplies are available” as the UK awaits Colonna’s report, as well as the results of an internal UN probe.

“The view that we take is that when we have seen those, we very much hope we will have the reassuranc­e to recommence funding,” he added.

Mitchell also signalled that the UK wants to see illegal settlers in Palestinia­n territorie­s “arrested, tried and punished”.

Shadow Foreign Office minister Wayne David told the Commons: “Last week Israel advanced plans for 3400 new homes in the occupied Palestinia­n territory.

“As a two-state solution is the only path to a lasting peace, does the minister agree that a firm position must be taken now by the United Kingdom and the internatio­nal community on these issues?”

Mitchell said he was in “broad agreement” with David.
