In Mozambique, this includes working with local and international partners and the Government of Mozambique to support disaster planning and response e.g. by providing emergency assistance for those displaced, and by funding partners to pre-position emergency shelter and non-food items. Ahead of Cyclone Freddy, the UK-supported START Fund has already allocated up to £275 thousand to its network members to help provide direct assistance. The British High Commissioner has participated in the government-led crisis response mechanism, and UK flood modelling is supporting the national and international response.</p><p>In Zimbabwe, British Embassy Harare is engaging with the UN-convened Humanitarian Country Team (HCT), which is tracking and assessing the risks of Cyclone Freddy in coordination with government partners. We are continuing to monitor the cyclone and coordinate with the HCT on preparedness and response plans. Earlier this month, the START Fund also allocated up to £192 thousand in response to severe weather in Zimbabwe.</p> answering member constituency Sutton Coldfield answering member printed Mr Andrew Mitchell grouped question UIN 149657 question first answered 01/03/2023 16:44:47 answering member 1211 label Biography information for Mr Andrew Mitchell
