Yemen relies on imports to meet 90% of its basic needs like food and fuel. Humanitarian aid provides only 5-15% of the total need: commercial imports supply the rest.<\/p>

<\/p>

The effectiveness of the delivery of both commercial and humanitarian goods through Yemeni ports remains significantly below the level needed. In March, only 45% of the estimated monthly food needs and 51% of the monthly fuel needs have been met through imports via all sea ports.<\/p>

<\/p>

One way we are supporting commercial imports into Red Sea ports is through our support to the UN Verification Inspection Mechanism (UNVIM). We are providing £1.3 million to UNVIM this financial year (2017/18) and have provided UK experts on the ground in Djibouti. This extra capacity has enabled UNVIM to increase its physical inspections of commercial ships fivefold. This provides assurances to the Saudi-led Coalition that shipments are legitimate and not a threat to their national security.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1201", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Alistair Burt"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "North East Bedfordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Alistair Burt"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-04-16", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-04-16T14:44:00.197Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "20"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-03-28", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Yemen: International Assistance"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what recent assessment she has made of the effectiveness of the delivery and distribution of aid, including food, to Yemen through the ports in Yemen.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1200", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Greg Knight"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "East Yorkshire"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Sir Greg Knight"} ], "uin" : "134881"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 1, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
