Written Question
Cameroon: Crimes against Humanity
Tuesday 6th November 2018

Asked by: Emma Reynolds (Labour - Wycombe)

Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what assessment she has made of the accuracy of recent reports by the International Rescue Committee of atrocities in South Cameroon and the displacement of 250,000 people in that region.

Answered by Harriett Baldwin - Shadow Minister (Business and Trade)

The UN have recorded that over 460,000 people have been displaced by recent violence in Cameroon’s Anglophone North-West and South-West regions and we are closely monitoring the situation. We have a humanitarian adviser based in Cameroon working with partners on humanitarian issues in the country and we are also funding a protection adviser in the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs working in the region on the Anglophone Crisis.
