<p>The Bilateral Development Review made clear that Britain will continue to lead
global efforts to fight the spread of infectious and communicable diseases, such as
neglected tropical diseases, TB, and malaria.</p><p>We will also remain a leader in
helping countries to build stronger health systems. This will help countries address
both current and future health challenges, including non-communicable diseases (NCDs).
The UK additionally supports some specific NCD programmes, for example research on
mental health, support for hepatitis B immunisation that prevents liver cancer, safe
cook stoves to reduce household air pollution, and improving diagnosis, treatment
and care for children with cancer in Burma, Bangladesh and Ghana.</p>
