Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the deteriorating humanitarian situation in Haiti, including reports of hunger and acute food insecurity in the Cité Soleil neighbourhood of Port-au-Prince.

The UK is closely monitoring the worsening security and humanitarian situation in Haiti. We continue to support Haiti through our contributions to agencies such as the United Nations and the World Bank Group who have a strong presence on the ground, and we are engaged in UN Security Council discussions to consider Haiti's request for support. The UK remains committed to supporting a Haitian-led solution focused on the root causes of these issues in order to address the complex challenges in Haiti.
