Depending on the area of business, the responsibilities undertaken and the nature of the engagement, this could be held in several places. Consolidation would be manual and onerous. We consider there to be a disproportionate cost to provide this information.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 29/05/2018 10:51:36 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/05/2018 answer text <p>The UK will provide £1.5m humanitarian funding to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) appeal to help improve the capacity of 11 hospitals in Gaza. The UK is working closely with our international partners to monitor the situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territories and ensure a coordinated and effective response to urgent medical needs. UK financial assistance to the Palestinian Authority helps to pay the salaries of vetted health public servants in the West Bank. Last year this support provided up to 3,700 immunisations for children and around 185,000 medical consultations annually. In addition, the UK is a long-term supporter of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), which provides basic services, including basic healthcare, to over 800,000 Palestinian refugees in the West Bank and 1.3 million Palestinian refugees in Gaza.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 30/05/2018 17:20:39 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/05/2018 answer text <p>There will be no decisions on the future distribution of UK aid until the Government’s negotiations on exiting the EU have concluded. However, leaving the EU means that in future we will take our own decisions about how to deliver the policy objectives previously targeted by EU funding. While the UK remains a member of the EU, we will honour commitments made to the EU budget during the period of our membership. We will pay our full share of all EU development programmes approved by December 2020, and contribute to the 11th European Development Fund until its closure.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 23/05/2018 16:15:31 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin
