124. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade if, in view of the ongoing strife in the Horn of Africa and the likelihood of increased famine and starvation, the EU and UN can mobilise its resources sufficiently to address the issue of starvation and the protection of civilians; if a comprehensive aid programme supported by peacekeeping forces can be organised to address the most serious issues arising in Yemen, Sudan, Somalia and Nigeria; if the African Union can also be engaged to combat the activities of Boko Haram and Al-Shabaab in the short term; if an equally aggressive campaign to supply clean drinking water to the areas in question can be organised; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
