<p>The Government attaches considerable importance to the current review of the World
Bank’s Safeguards Framework. We have been strongly engaged throughout both with UK
civil society organisations and the World Bank, most recently at UK consultation meetings
on 19-20 January. At these, discussions with the Bank included a specific focus on
how the safeguards will ensure proper consideration and risk management for vulnerable
or disadvantaged groups such as women, the disabled and LGBT people. The Government
will continue to raise these points as the review progresses.</p><p> </p>
