<p>The UK government and the EU Regional Emergency Trust Fund for Africa do not fund
or part-fund migrant detention centres in Libya or have any involvement in the day-to-day
running of them. These centres are the responsibility of the Libyan authorities. The
UK government does not hold detailed information on the centres but we are aware that
conditions in them are appalling and we are concerned about those living in them.</p><p>
</p><p>We are urging the Libyan authorities to improve conditions in the centres,
to develop alternatives, and, where it is possible to do so, UK aid is providing basic
humanitarian support to those who are in them, including blankets and clothes.</p>
