This was announced by DFID’s Secretary of State during her visit to Nepal on 19-20 May. Our support has also provided many thousands of needy people and affected communities with access to clean water and essential shelter, and has transported thousands of boxes of food rations and lanterns. Our pre-positioned water, sanitation, and hygiene supplies have also reached thousands of people.</p> answering member constituency New Forest West answering member printed Mr Desmond Swayne question first answered 01/06/2015 14:08:44 answering member 55 label Biography information for Sir Desmond Swayne
