00:00Yes, these are such distressing scenes coming out of Nepal and we feel for the people there and everything that
00:07they're going through at this moment in time. Such devastation of communities and already, sadly it seems, such huge loss
00:15of life.
00:15In the past, Nepal has been there for Britain in our hour of need and we will be there for
00:21Nepal in its hour of need right now. So the immediate offer that the Foreign Secretary has relayed to the
00:28Nepalese government is an offer of first responders, search and rescue support. Britain excels in this and we're there and
00:35we're ready to be deployed. Obviously it's a matter for the Nepalese government but that is available. Financial support has
00:42been put on the table as well.
00:44Of course, British nationals missing as well and we need to support that search and rescue effort.
