To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what his Department's policy is on monitoring the contribution of UK personnel, intelligence and assets including British bases to US-led counter-terror operations that result in casualties.

The Department ensures that any UK contribution to allies' operations is consistent with British values and British and international law. Legal advice is sought throughout the authorisation process, and policies such as the Overseas Security and Justice Assistance policy and the Cabinet Office Consolidated Guidance policy are also applied where relevant.
