§ Mrs. GillanTo ask the Secretary of State for International Development what measures she is taking to support the work of the World Food Programme in the Sudan. [92153]
§ Mr. FoulkesThe British Government committed £14.1 million through the World Food Programme (WFP) last year. This year, the situation is much improved. We have made available £5 million and have asked the UN Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), who are co-ordinating the UN system's humanitarian response in Sudan, to let us have their priorities, including those of WFP, for the use of this money.
