The UK government welcomes the Government of Sudan\u2019s acceptance of the US proposal to provide humanitarian aid to the South Kordofan and Blue Nile States. During the most recent round of the UK-Sudan Strategic Dialogue on 16 October, the Government of Sudan reaffirmed their continued commitment to this proposal. We have continued to urge the Sudan People\u2019s Liberation Movement \u2013 North (SPLM-N) to immediately agree to the US proposal, in order to enable humanitarian aid to reach those in rebel controlled locations in the Two Areas.<\/p>

The UK is deeply concerned about the humanitarian situation in Yemen. This is why we have increased UK aid to Yemen to £155 million for 2017-18, and have stepped up our work with UN agencies and other partner organisations to make sure that our aid is delivered to people in dire need. We regularly monitor and review our programmes and use independent experts to monitor and verify that food and supplies reach those in need.<\/p>

The Preventing Maternal Deaths programme aims to increase access to family planning services, give women and girls more control over their lives, and reduce maternal deaths from unsafe abortion. Where national policies on abortion contribute to high levels of maternal death, our programme implementing partners may seek to raise awareness of these issues and support local efforts to achieve reform aimed at saving maternal lives. It is not possible to disaggregate spend on these activities specifically.<\/p>

Since 2011, DFID has provided £99.8 million to the overall PMD programme which works across 17 countries.<\/p>
