Aid group Oxfam Great Britain will be suspended from operating in Haiti for the next two months pending an investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct by its employees, a government official said Thursday. Oxfam International Regional Director Simon Ticehurst said he and others with the organization have been meeting with Haitian officials and providing information to assist with the investigation. Oxfam Great Britain is one of four divisions of the international organization working in Haiti. Oxfam International, the umbrella organization, has apologized to the people of Haiti and said it has created a new plan to improve oversight of its employees. In a statement earlier this week, Oxfam said it hoped that its apologies and its response will restore public trust in the organization.
