answer text <p>The UK is still the largest donor to the South Sudan Health Pool Fund (HPF3), providing up to £175 million from 2018 to 2024. HPF3 supports more than 500 public health facilities across South Sudan, including 15 hospitals, and around 4,400 community health workers. In August, the FCDO, on behalf of HPF3 donors, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the South Sudanese Government, setting out how we will transition responsibility for the provision of health services at seven state hospitals and Al-Saba Children's Hospital to the South Sudanese authorities by March 2023. By sustaining our support for community health workers, we will enable continued treatment for common childhood illnesses in locations where there has been a withdrawal of HPF3 funding.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The UK does not have economic sanctions on Zimbabwe. The UK has targeted sanctions on five Zimbabwean individuals to hold them to account for serious human rights violations and corruption. These sanctions do not target, and specifically seek to avoid impact on, the wider economy and the people of Zimbabwe. Therefore we assess that UK sanctions do not impact the healthcare sector or energy security in Zimbabwe.</p> more like this

answer text <p>In 2019, the FCDO jointly conducted a conflict analysis for Cameroon with independent experts. The analysis made recommendations including promoting inclusive dialogue to seek a peaceful resolution, and providing humanitarian assistance, which the UK Government continues to pursue. The UK regularly urges the Government of Cameroon to engage in inclusive dialogue, including at the UN Human Rights Council, and endorses previous dialogue efforts. UK Government has delivered food supplies, sanitation, healthcare and social protection to Cameroon over the last five years with over £20 million of humanitarian funding. The West Africa FCDO Research Analyst visited in 2022 and updated the 2019 analysis. We continuously update our analysis across government and with partners, to ensure our interventions are appropriate to the context.</p> more like this

The UK Government is fully supportive of their efforts in this regard. PoWs and civilian detainees are protected under International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and must be treated humanely. IHL grants the International Committee of the Red Cross access to visit PoWs and detainees to interview them without witnesses. Permission for such visits may not be withheld unless for temporary reasons of imperative military necessity.</p> more like this
