uin	210360
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/10/2014 answer text <p>The Ebola outbreak has already generated sporadic public order, social and political problems. While we do not anticipate a major breakdown in the countries affected, we recognise the possibility of deterioration and are working to mitigate this risk through increased political messaging, security sector support and though bilateral and multilateral channels. <br><br>The UK will continue to work with the affected governments, regional bodies such as the Economic Union of West African States and with other international partners to ensure that risks of instability are managed. Since April 2013 the International Security Advisory Team (ISAT) has been supporting the security sectors in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea to help build economic and political stability. ISAT’s work with Sierra Leone builds on more than ten years of UK support for the country’s security sector following the end of the civil war in 2002.</p> answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 21/10/2014 13:38:11 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/10/2014 answer text <p>I receive reports from a variety of sources, including our Embassy in Cairo which engages with a cross-section of Egyptian society. I visited Cairo in August and October this year and discussed the political situation with Government Ministers, political leaders, human rights defenders and civil society. Since January 2014, Egypt has held a constitutional referendum; elected a new President, Abdel Fattah Al Sisi; and is reportedly preparing for parliamentary elections before the end of the year.</p><p>We believe that a genuinely open political process, in which all political groups are able to participate, will lead to long-term political stability in Egypt. We look to President Al Sisi to take steps to implement the rights contained in Egypt’s constitution; in particular, ensuring freedom of expression and association as well as ensuring that human and legal rights are fully upheld.</p> answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 21/10/2014 13:30:05 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood

tabling member constituency	Romford
tabling member printed	Andrew Rosindell
uin	210306
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/10/2014 answer text <p>Sanctions imposed on Russia by the EU in respect of Russia’s actions in Ukraine are designed to impose a cost on Russia, deter further escalation of this crisis, and support the wider diplomatic effort to reach a sustainable solution. EU sanctions already announced have exacerbated negative trends in Russia’s economy: capital flight in the first half of 2014 was greater than for the whole of 2013; and growth predictions have been revised downwards. Russian access to western financial markets is being severely constrained as lenders consider the risks of Russian exposure in the current climate. The strengthening of sanctions is signalling clearly to the Russian leadership that its policy of trying to destabilise Ukraine will continue to have serious consequences.</p> answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 21/10/2014 13:36:32 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington
