answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/05/2016 answer text <p>The UK does not have a bilateral aid programme in Turkey. We help Turkey address the consequences of the Syria crisis and migration challenges as the country hosts the highest number of refugees in the world, by providing support to refugees in Turkey, jointly with international partners.</p><p>The UK’s bilateral aid programme in India has changed with India’s development. A middle-income country and major trading partner, India is still home to one third of the world’s poorest people. The UK ceased its traditional aid programme to India in 2015, and our support now focuses on promoting inclusive economic development, both reducing poverty and strengthening UK trade and investment opportunities.</p> answering member printed Baroness Verma question first answered 06/05/2016 09:02:52 answering member 3790 label Biography information for Baroness Verma
