Proceeding contribution from Andrew Mitchell (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Humanitarian Emergency Responses.


Humanitarian Emergency Responses

The right hon. Gentleman makes a good point on which I sought to be absolutely clear in my opening remarks. Humanitarian relief must be needs-based, and must not take account of such extraneous factors. That is the commitment of the British Government —it has long been a commitment of Governments of all parties, and it continues just as strongly today.
