This excludes direct bilateral expenditure on family planning, which is reported separately. On HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment and care direct bilateral expenditure was £27m.</p><p>This data uses the specific reproductive health and HIV input sector codes set by the OECD/DAC. This does not capture spend on related programming that complements our wider work on HIV and reproductive health (for example family planning services, maternal and neo-natal health, strengthening health systems, research activities and our substantial contribution to the Global Fund to fight AIDS, TB and Malaria).</p><p>Data for all sector codes are available on the Statistics for International Development website. Data for 2016/17 will be released early in 2018.</p> answering member printed Lord Bates grouped question UIN HL1563 question first answered 21/09/2017 12:08:22 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates
