Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, if her Department will consider funding non-UNHCR programmes that support trafficked and abused North Korean women in China.
We have no plans to provide funding for non-United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees programmes that support trafficked and abused North Korean women in China. The Department for International Development does not have a bilateral aid programme in North Korea and our bilateral aid programme in China closed in March 2011.
