Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what recent assessment he has made of the impact of humanitarian support to Ukraine.

The UK has committed £220 million of humanitarian assistance to Ukraine and the region to enable the provision of essential services and protection for the most vulnerable, including women and children, the elderly and those with disabilities. UK funding has supported the UN to reach over 13.4 million people in need. We work closely with the Government of Ukraine, the UN and international partners to assess humanitarian needs. We continue to assess and monitor all programmed assistance spent on Ukraine and the region. We have contracted an independent monitoring supplier to conduct field visits of our projects. A review of humanitarian spend will be published in late 2023.
