Anas Sarwar, Glasgow, Central, Labour, refugees in urban areas
Developing Countries: Urban Areas
International Development
Anas Sarwar (Glasgow Central, Labour)
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what assessment she has made of the vulnerabilities of refugees in urban areas.
Alan Duncan (Minister of State, International Development; Rutland and Melton, Conservative)
DFID
recognises that, in developing countries, refugees in urban areas often
face a wide range of risks which include threat of arrest and
detention, exploitation, inadequate shelter, human trafficking,
prohibition on movement and residence and lack of documentation. This is
why DFID is providing support to the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to deliver protection and assistance programmes in urban areas. DFID has also funded research, through the Norwegian Refugee Council,
to identify the most effective approach for assisting urban refugees,
on which humanitarian organisations can draw to improve their programmes
of support.

Anas Sarwar (Glasgow Central, Labour)
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what assessment she has made of her Department's expertise in urbanisation and urban development.
Alan Duncan (Minister of State, International Development; Rutland and Melton, Conservative)
DFID
has built up internal expertise in urbanisation and urban development
over the past decade. DFID has experience from India and other settings
in urban development, experience which can be leveraged as we develop
our urban programming going forward.
DFID's
expertise on urban issues resides in a number of technical advisory
groups, especially in infrastructure, climate and environment,
livelihoods, private sector development, economics, governance, social
development and humanitarian. An internal network of 60 DFID specialists
working on urban issues was created in early 2012 to promote improved
understanding of the challenges of urbanisation by drawing on the
existing knowledge and expertise and to share experience across DFID's
country programmes. Themes of current interest include poverty, health,
migration, enterprise development, climate change adaptation and
disaster resilience.
I was wondering why MP's had taken to addressing MP Alan Ducan as She or Her?
Here is Mr Duncan's response.

Dear Mr Brookes
Thank you for your e-mail.
The
reason the question is written this way is that all questions tabled
for oral answer are addressed to the Secretary of State and then
subsequently allocated to the relevant
minister. Mr Sarwar’s question is therefore formally addressed to
Justine Greening as Secretary of State, even though it was ultimately
answered by me.
Regards
Alan Duncan
So if you notice any future question and answers with what appears to be in correctly sexed that is the reason.
