Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, how much of the £100 million pledged by her Department to the conflict in Yemen has been spent; and on what those monies have been spent.
The UK Government has committed £112 million to the crisis in Yemen for 2016/17, £104 million of which has been disbursed. This funding is providing vital humanitarian and development assistance in Yemen, such as food, clean water and emergency shelter, as well as supporting access to basic services and cash for work schemes.
