	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2015 answer text The security and humanitarian situation remains grave in the Central African Republic and continues to have a severe impact on the civilian population and their human rights. The UK government underlined our concerns about this in our statement to the UN’s Human Rights Council in July. The UK co-funded the African Union’s 2014 deployment of experts to the Central African Republic to support victims of sexual violence. The deployment facilitated the rehabilitation of three health facilities, provided protection and assistance to victims of sexual violence and established a national network of government and community stakeholders, in the prevention and response to sexual violence. The UK welcomes efforts by the government of the Central African Republic and the UN to set up a Special Criminal Court to address war crimes and crimes against humanity committed since 2012. The UK welcomes the positive outcome of the Bangui Forum in particular the agreement signed between the armed groups, UN and transitional government to release all children from the ranks of the armed groups. It is important that these children are offered assistance and helped to reintegrate into society. The signing of an agreement on disarmament, demobilization and reintegration is an important step but it is critical for the agreement to be applied and for international forces to enforce the commitments made by the signatories of this agreement. answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 24/07/2015 11:26:24 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington
