answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/03/2023 answer text <p>Other than Ukraine, no other country has felt the impact of Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine more deeply than Moldova. On 16 March, the Foreign Secretary met Moldovan President Maia Sandu and Foreign Minister Nicu Popescu in Chisinau. He reiterated the UK's steadfast support for sovereign Moldova as it pursues a path of freedom and independence. He also committed a further £10 million of support towards economic and governance reforms. This is in addition to £12 million over three years pledged last year to strengthen Moldova's defences against cyberattack, counter Russian disinformation, reform armed forces and tackle corruption.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 23/03/2023 17:39:26 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/03/2023 answer text <p>We have removed bans on previously prohibited goods like chilled meats and seed potatoes, and paved the way to remove bans on 11 native British and other commercially important plant species by the next planting season, as industry has called for - including those trees that were prevented from moving to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.</p><p>There have always been goods subject to prohibition or that are heavily restricted when moving within the UK.

question text	To ask His Majesty's Government what funding they are providing for demining projects in areas of Myanmar not under the control of the military.

uin	HL6413
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/03/2023 answer text <p>The UK Government does not fund any demining projects in Myanmar, as demining organisations are not permitted to conduct mine clearance activities there. Risk education is permitted, and this financial year the FCDO's Global Mine Action Programme (GMAP) is providing £600,000 in funding for UK NGO the HALO Trust and Mines Advisory Group to deliver this activity. Humanitarian mine action is a neutral activity, and the GMAP Myanmar programme currently delivers risk education to at risk groups and communities where conditions allow, regardless of who is in control.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 27/03/2023 16:16:40 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
