answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/01/2015 answer text <p>The UK is not a current contributor to the EU Trust Fund for CAR. We welcome the leadership of the EU on the humanitarian response in CAR and on programmes linking relief, recovery and development. The UK has committed £30 million in humanitarian funds to CAR and CAR refugees since July 2013, funding a range of NGOs and UN agencies to provide protection, water, health, shelter and food security. We are keeping the international response to the CAR crisis under review.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency New Forest West answering member printed Mr Desmond Swayne question first answered 05/01/2015 17:45:08 answering member 55 label Biography information for Sir Desmond Swayne
