Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo inquiry

Inquiry

The Committee held a one-off evidence session on the worsening Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The Committee began by taking evidence from the Wellcome Trust (which led on the development of the Ebola vaccine) and World Vision (which has a sizeable presence in DRC). The Committee then heard from the Minister of State and supporting officials on DFID’s response to the crisis.
