Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, if she will allocate additional funding to tackle food insecurity in South Sudan.
Food insecurity is at its worst in South Sudan’s seven year history. The lean season has begun, and due to continued disruptions to the delivery of humanitarian aid, there is a risk of famine in some areas.
In 2018 we are the second largest donor to the UN’s Humanitarian Response Plan for South Sudan.
