The British Government continues to work closely with regional partners, including Kenya and Uganda, international financial institutions, and other British Government departments to address the illicit financial flows fuelling the conflict in South Sudan, and to clamp down on corruption and money laundering. We continue to raise the importance of tackling illicit financial flows through all our engagement at Ministerial and senior official level.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 09/11/2018 15:04:14 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin
