answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/03/2015 answer text We were deeply concerned to hear about an explosion at a coalmine near Donetsk city on 4 March which resulted in over 30 deaths. the UK was not asked by the Ukrainian government for assistance on this occasion. We were concerned to hear that the Russian-backed separatists rejected the Ukrainian government’s offer to assist in the tragedy. The UK continues to support Ukraine in other areas, and is providing £10 million in technical assistance to support economic and governance reforms in Ukraine, and to provide humanitarian assistance. In response to the deteriorating humanitarian situation an additional £15 million of humanitarian support to Ukraine was announced by the Prime Minister, my right hon. Friend the Member for Witney (Mr Cameron), on 23 February. answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 13/03/2015 14:38:11 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington
