Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what information his Department holds on the amount of aid disbursed by the Disaster and Emergency Committee in Ukraine since the Russian invasion of that country.

We have provided £347 million of humanitarian assistance to Ukraine since February 2022. This includes £25 million to the Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal, which raised over £400 million in the first 6 months of the war. The first funds (£85 million) were spent by 13 Disaster and Emergency Committee member charities in the initial six months after Russia's invasion.
