answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/01/2015 answer text <p>In June, after considerable lobbying from the UK, Burma endorsed the Declaration of Commitment to End Sexual Violence in Conflict. The authorities now need to demonstrate that they will honour these commitments. We continue to make clear to the Burmese government that all allegations of human rights abuses must be dealt with through clear, independent and transparent investigative and prosecutorial processes which meet international standards. <br><br>I raised this issue with Deputy Foreign Minister U Thant Kyaw on 13 June 2014 during the Global Summit to End Sexual Violence in Conflict. More recently, in October the Minister of State for International Development, my right hon. Friend the Member for New Forest West (Mr Swayne), discussed the issue when he met Burma’s Minister for Social Welfare, Relief and Resettlement. <br><br>The UK is providing over £300,000 towards projects training women in basic legal skills, helping leaders prevent sexual violence in their own communities and working with non-state armed groups to promote adherence to international standards in respect of sexual violence and gender discrimination. Additionally, in conflict areas in Burma, the Department for International Development (DFID) provides over £500,000 in humanitarian funding directly supporting the prevention of sexual violence and assistance to survivors.</p> answering member constituency East Devon answering member printed Mr Hugo Swire question first answered 05/01/2015 14:58:53 answering member 1408 label Biography information for Lord Swire
