<p>Funds raised by the British public for the DEC appeal have already reached over
£85 million, which includes £5 million in matched funding provided by DFID. UK Government
representatives in Nepal’s meet regularly with Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC)
members to discuss the ongoing earthquake response, recovery and reconstruction efforts.</p><p>The
DEC publishes regular updates on the Nepal response on their website and through social
media. Information on how funds are being used is also shared directly to donors via
email and post. The DEC has also commissioned and published an independent evaluation
of the work, which I have attached for ease, of members in Nepal which particularly
focuses on the emergency response phase.</p><p>The DEC is planning on producing a
‘one year on’ report which will be published on the anniversary of the earthquake.
This will give details of how funds were raised, how they were disbursed to member
agencies, how they have been spent and what has been achieved.</p><p> </p>
