The humanitarian chief for the United Nations says she is investigating reports that aid has yet to reach remote parts of the Philippines a month after a devastating typhoon killed more than 5,700 people. Valerie Amos, a UN under-secretary said in Australia today she's still hearing "worrying reports in the media ... where people said they hadn't received any aid as yet."

Graham Eastmond works with the Minneapolis-based American Refugee Committee. He was recently in the Philippines and joins The Daily Circuit to give us an update on relief efforts.
