answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/11/2015 answer text <p>Since 2013, DFID has committed £58 million to address the needs of Central Africans, Central African children and of refugees from the Central African Republic (CAR). This funding has enabled agencies to support children who have been separated from their families, to provide services for girls and boys who have suffered sexual and gender-based violence, to reduce malnutrition, and give children access to education and training. DFID monitors needs in CAR and reviews regularly the strategy and level of support it provides. DFID are currently considering options for programming in CAR after the end of our current programme, which runs until March 2016.</p> answering member constituency Welwyn Hatfield answering member printed Grant Shapps question first answered 26/11/2015 17:05:40 answering member 1582 label Biography information for Grant Shapps
