The motion
That this House recognises that six months have passed since the earthquake in Haiti; acknowledges that much good work by the UN and various aid agencies has been carried out; but notes that the island is still in the midst of a humanitarian crisis and that more than 1,300 temporary camps remain, housing 1.5 million people; is concerned that conditions may worsen with the coming hurricane season; and calls on the new Coalition Government to continue the UK's commitment to provide aid to help that nation to regroup, reorganise and rebuild.
