Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Deputy Foreign Secretary, what steps he is taking with his international counterparts to help ensure that humanitarian aid reaches people forcibly evacuated due to dam safety concerns in Kenya.

In response to recent flooding the UK has provided £850,000 to UNICEF to support the provision of cash transfers to nearly 7,000 households in the worst affected counties. UK funding will also deliver urgently needed health, nutrition and sanitation services. The UK is committed to ensuring its aid reaches those who need it most.
