Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what assessment he has made of the potential increase in severity of the humanitarian situation for refugees and migrants in the Vucjak camp in Bosnia and Herzegovina as a result of changing seasons.

​The infrastructure that supports migrants in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) is under pressure, especially as we come to the coldest part of the year. A number of humanitarian organisations assess that the Vučjak site is unsafe and undignified and have urged the authorities in Bosnia and Herzegovina to relocate those based at the site urgently. Since 2018, EU funding to Bosnia and Herzegovina on migration issues has amounted to a total of €34m, including the United Kingdom contribution, and the United Kingdom provided £565,000 of bilateral funding to communities affected by migration at the start of 2019.
