PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Ukraine: Humanitarian Aid (10 March 2022)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether she will set out further details on the £120 million humanitarian aid package the UK government has committed to Ukraine.

Asked by:
Ed Davey (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

The UK has now pledged £220 million of humanitarian assistance to support a well-coordinated and well-funded response to the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine and the region. We have already disbursed funding to humanitarian agencies in Ukraine this financial year as well as enabled the delivery of life-saving UK medical supplies; committed £25 million to the Disasters Emergency Committee Ukraine Appeal, which has now raised over £130 million; and enabled the deployment of a 13-person field team of humanitarian experts to the region to provide logistics advice and analysis of the evolving refugee situation and needs. This analysis will inform further funding disbursements both within this financial year and next.
