I am not sure if I can help you. The government has increased the level of financial assistance available and is working through NGOs in delivering that assistance. I do not have any data that would give you the sort of thing that you are asking for. I will certainly take it on notice, but as you know the NGOs have been engaged to provide financial assistance and advice and more funding has been made available. But I do not have a briefing on the sort of evidence you are after, so I will take it on notice and see if there is anything that might assist you.
