Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what funding has been provided from all Government sources to support drought relief in Somaliland in the last 12 months.

The UK government, through DFID, has provided £38.7m between July and December 2016 and a further £107m to date since January 2017 to support drought relief in Somalia, including Somaliland. A further £63m for drought relief in Somalia is currently being allocated. Sub-national allocations are not recorded for our aid to Somalia, but our humanitarian assistance is allocated on the basis of need, ensuring that Somaliland gets its fair share.
