answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/06/2018 answer text <p>We are very concerned about the plight of the many thousands of people affected by the recent tropical storm in Somaliland in particular and flooding in Somalia more generally. The UK’s early commitment of £45m for the humanitarian response so far in Somalia in 2018 is enabling our bilateral and multilateral partners, such as World Food Programme, UNICEF, Food and Agriculture Organization, OCHA, Islamic Relief, the Somali Red Crescent Society and Save the Children, to be flexible and adapt to urgent needs as they arise. In response to Tropical Storm Sagar, existing NGO and UN partners are drawing on pre-positioned relief supplies and redirecting resources to provide urgently needed water treatment kits, tents, and health and nutrition supplies sufficient to meet the needs of more than 400,000 people in Somaliland and other affected places. The relief effort is continuing, along with assessment work to identify longer term recovery needs.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 04/06/2018 15:49:06 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin

For example, we are proud to be a founding supporter of the Robert Carr Civil Society Networks Fund, which supports the grassroots response led by those groups themselves. DFID reports bilateral aid expenditure annually against specific sector codes, including HIV and AIDS, to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. These are publically available on the Statistics for International Development website: GPEX tables. Granular data on proportion of spend targeting specific groups affected by HIV and AIDS are not compiled.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 12/03/2018 10:55:00 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
