Report
1. In February and March 2015, the Committee undertook
a short inquiry following up its work earlier in the Parliament
on British foreign policy and the 'Arab Spring'. We visited Egypt
and Tunisia in February 2015,[1]
and we took oral evidence from Tobias Ellwood MP, the FCO Minister
with responsibility for the Middle East and North Africa region,
on 3 March 2015.[2] On
the basis of the visit and the oral evidence session with the
Minister, we wrote to the Foreign Secretary setting out our observations,
including matters which we are drawing to the attention of our
successors in the next Parliament. We attach that letter as Annex
1 to this report.
