International Development written question – answered at on 17 February 2011.
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what recent assessment he has made of humanitarian conditions for internally displaced people in government-controlled camps in Sri Lanka.
Department for International Development (DFID) officials visited the camps for internally displaced people (IDPs) in Sri Lanka in November 2010. Since the end of the conflict in May 2009, the situation of IDPs has improved significantly. The number of people in the camps has reduced from about 300,000 to about 18,000. It is expected that most of those remaining will leave the camps during this year and return to their home.
