<p>The UK remains deeply concerned by the ongoing violence and continued lack of access
in Kachin and Northern Shan States. Over 110,000 people remain displaced by conflict
and within camps. We have committed £17 million to support the livelihoods of the
most vulnerable and displaced in Kachin and Northern Shan through the Livelihoods
and Food Security Fund (LIFT). We have also committed a further £37 million to support
live-saving interventions reaching over 350,000 people since 2012.</p><p>The UK continues
to raise our concerns with both the military and the civilian Government of Burma
at every opportunity. The British Ambassador in Burma raised issues around access
with U Kyaw Tin (Minister for International Cooperation) on 27 May.</p>
