		<description>Vicky,
       I am researching my MA Dissertation, and I too am trying to track down a copy of the Helmand Roadmap.  I am particularly interested in the UK position on the Afghan electoral process, linkages between local democracy (village shuras), regional/provincial government and central government,

		<description>I am researching for an author, Patrick Bishop, who is writing a second book on Afghanistan (his first one was 3 para) which will attempt to describe the reality on the ground in Helmand. I am trying to lay my hands on a copy of the Helmand Road Map, and on any evaluation reports of the impact of DFID and the Stablisation Unit in Helmand. There does not seem to be much available online. Could you point me in the direction of the best source of information in this area.
Many thanks

		<description>Vicky, as the new Minister for International Development can I thank you for the invaluable work you are doing in Afghanistan. In my first three days of this new job I have seen the remarkable statistics of how the lives of people in Afghanistan have been changed for the better. Keep up the good work, which I will be following on your blog.
