	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/07/2017 answer text <p>​On 16 November 2016, the Government announced its decision not to support the resettlement of Chagossians to the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT) on the grounds of feasibility, defence and security interests, and cost to the British taxpayer. At the same time the Government announced a support package worth approximately £40million over ten years, the vast majority of which is intended to provide Chagossians in the UK, Mauritius and Seychelles with better life chances in the communities in which they currently live. As part of the package, the Government is also implementing an increased programme of heritage visits to BIOT. The next heritage visit by Chagossians is planned for later this year.</p> answering member constituency Rutland and Melton answering member printed Sir Alan Duncan question first answered 04/07/2017 15:48:19 answering member 343 label Biography information for Sir Alan Duncan
