<p>UN and international agencies have reported restrictions on delivering aid to internally
displaced people in areas of Burma not under government control in Kachin State. Aid
is reaching those in need and the UK is one of the largest donors having allocated
over £17 million for humanitarian assistance for internally displaced persons (IDP)
in Kachin and Northern Shan States, including in non-government controlled areas since
2012. The UK regularly presses the government on the need to ensure aid reaches those
in need. On 8-11 June a DFID team visited Kachin, including non-government controlled
areas and raised humanitarian access with the Chief Minister for Kachin.</p><p> </p><p>
