Libya
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty’s Government , further to the Written Answer by Lord Howell of Guildford on 4 April (WA 333–4), whether they will discuss with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and the International Organisation for Migration suitable arrangements for Eritreans, Ethiopians and Somalis who leave Libya but cannot return home because of conditions in their home countries.
- Answer
-
The agency mandated to protect and support refugees is the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR). We have regular discussions with UNHCR and the International Organisation for Migration, including about persons of concern at the border (such as Eritreans, Ethiopians and Somalis). The Department for International Development has humanitarian advisors at the border camps who are monitoring the situation closely.
