Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps his Department is taking to protect child nutrition services in the immediate and long-term in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The UK remains a committed development partner of the Democratic Republic of Congo, including on child nutrition services. Through our humanitarian and health programmes, UK aid has supported better nutrition for over 4 million children from April 2019 - December 2020. Preventing and treating severe acute malnutrition in children remains a priority for our current and future humanitarian and health programmes.
