Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Humanitarian Emergency Responses.
Humanitarian Emergency Responses
All the humanitarian aid we give for natural disasters, such as that in Pakistan, or to countries with civil unrest, such Syria, Egypt and Sudan, is good news. However, the feedback from some of those countries is that those of a Christian faith and in evangelical Churches are at the back of the queue and ignored when it comes to humanitarian aid. What steps will the Minister take to ensure that that two-tier system of assistance will not continue to disadvantage those of that faith in those countries?
