Glenda Jackson: To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what assistance is being provided to the Iraqi Health Ministry for the provision of prosthetic limbs to Iraqi children injured in the conflict and subsequent insurgency. [219873] Hilary Benn: Assistance to the Basra Prosthetics Centre has been provided by the Coalition Provisional Authority and by the UK military. They have funded the purchase, repair and delivery of prosthetic equipment. Repairs to the Centre's facilities are currently under consideration by the UK military under their Quick Impact Projects (QIPs). The Basra Prosthetics Centre provides a number of services including assessment, treatment and provision of lower limb prosthetics to Iraqis throughout Southern Iraq. It treats accident victims, disabled people, amputees including mine victims, and patients with cerebral palsy, polio and rheumatic conditions. It also provides physiotherapy to post-operative patients. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) works to support amputees in Iraq, although their activities have been constrained by the security situation. The ICRC is supporting five orthopaedic centres in central and southern Iraq with components, spare parts, local purchases and maintenance machinery. DFID has committed a total of £16.5 million to the ICRC since March 2003 in support of their activities in Iraq. UNICEF is also involved in assisting Iraqi children in particularly vulnerable situations. This includes help for disabled children. DFID's broader support to the Iraqi health sector includes technical advice to the Ministry of Health, £5 million in assistance via the World Health Organisation (WHO) and part of our £70 million contribution to the multi-donor trust funds managed in line with Iraqi priorities by the United Nations and the World Bank. Additionally, DFID's Civil Society Fund for Iraq works to strengthen the capacity of Iraqi civil society organisations to better address the needs of poor and vulnerable groups, and includes support specifically focused on the needs of children.

Glenda Jackson: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence pursuant to his answer of 29 November 2004, Official Report, column 345, to the hon. Member for Lewisham, Deptford (Joan Ruddock) what the (a) number and (b) locations of civilians in and around Fallujah to whom humanitarian assistance could be provided. [202128] Hilary Benn: The International Organisation for Migration (IOM) reports that around 210,000 civilians from Fallujah are currently living in the area around Fallujah: 120,000 in and around Amiriyah, 24,000 in Hababniyah, 21,000 in and around Karma, 21,000 in Nieamiyah, 12,000 in and around Saklawiya, and 12,000 spread across the smaller towns of Heet, Aana, Rawa, and Hadeatha. Assessments by the Interim Iraqi Government (IIG) and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) indicate that a further estimated 35,000 civilians from Fallujah are currently situated in Baghdad. It is estimated that only a few thousand civilians remain in the city of Fallujah. The IIG reports that the majority of Fallujah's displaced civilians are staying with family and friends. Some are in schools, mosques, and Government buildings, and a small number are in tents. The IIG, the Multi-National Force, and humanitarian agencies agree that there is no humanitarian crisis in and around Fallujah. The IIG is monitoring the situation and co-ordinating humanitarian work in the area. A cross-ministry Core Co-ordination Group has been established, and representatives from key Iraqi Ministries are now on the ground, conducting assessments and distributing essential supplies. The IIG is also working with the Multi-National Force, UN agencies, and NGOs to ensure safe access to Fallujah's displaced civilians, and to plan for their return to the city. DFID is providing technical advice to the IIG Fallujah Core Co-ordination Group and is maintaining close contact with representatives from the Multi-National Force and with humanitarian organisations on the ground.

Glenda Jackson: To ask the Secretary of State for International Development (1) what action the UK is taking to ensure emergency water and electricity supplies are provided to the citizens of Fallujah; [199840] (2) what assistance is being provided by the United Kingdom to restore essential utilities infrastructure to Fallujah; [199841] (3) what resources the UK plans to provide to assist in the re-building of Fallujah; [199842] (4) what emergency (a) medical supplies, (b) personnel and (c) equipment will be provided by the United Kingdom to assist those injured by coalition force attacks upon Fallujah. [199843] Hilary Benn: The Interim Iraqi Government (IIG) is leading on humanitarian and reconstruction work in Fallujah and has established a central team to co- ordinate its assistance to the people of Fallujah. This assistance includes: supplying food, water and medical supplies, restoring essential services, and refurbishing medical facilities. The UK is in close contact with the IIG, and DFID is providing advice to its Fallujah co- ordination team. The IIG and the Multi-National Force operating in Fallujah have reported that there is no humanitarian crisis so far and humanitarian visits to Fallujah by British military officials confirm this assessment. Multi- National Forces have reported that their stockpiles of humanitarian supplies have provided for the immediate needs of Fallujah's civilians. Iraqi Government and Iraqi Red Crescent trucks containing humanitarian supplies are now entering the city and the distribution of food, water, and medical supplies has begun. Injured civilians are being treated in mobile hospitals in Fallujah, or have been taken for treatment at hospitals in nearby towns. The Interim Iraqi Government (IIG) has also set aside significant funds from the Iraqi government budget for reconstruction work. The IIG is being supported by the Multi-National Force, which also has considerable resources for immediate post-conflict reconstruction work in Fallujah, including clearing rubble and the restoration of water, sewerage and electricity services. United States agencies have planned around 100 reconstruction projects in the Fallujah area totalling $84.1 million. These are due to begin soon and should complete by the end of January. DFID is maintaining close contact with the IIG, with representatives of Multi-National Force-Iraq, and with humanitarian organisations on the ground, to address the needs of Fallujah's population. DFID is ready to respond positively to requests for humanitarian help or further advice in Fallujah or elsewhere.
