uin	HL8917
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/07/2018 answer text <p>DFID prioritises reaching the most vulnerable people across Syria, wherever they may be. UK funding is distributed on the basis of need rather than geography, and we are advocating to improve the effectiveness and funding of the international response to the Syria Crisis. DFID does not require its humanitarian partners to breakdown funding or results provided to them by area of control, as this is not the basis on which aid is delivered.</p><p> </p><p>DFID is providing support to vulnerable Syrians, including displaced people, across the North West of Syria. This includes food packages, access to sustainable water, health consultations, education, and livelihoods and agriculture support. We continue to monitor ongoing displacement across the whole of Syria to ensure our programmes are supporting those most in need.</p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 04/07/2018 16:46:27 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates
