We also apply a rigorous process of due diligence, where they must demonstrate clear and accountable governance structures, with transparent and accountable financial procedures. All partners that receive UK funding must also demonstrate full compliance with humanitarian principles.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Putney answering member printed Justine Greening question first answered 27/10/2014 17:47:12 answering member 1555 label Biography information for Justine Greening
