	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/12/2014 answer text <p>The UK remains a strong and active supporter of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance. The UK recently pledged up to £1 billion to Gavi for 2016 to 2020. The full UK contribution to Gavi will save a child’s life every two minutes. This funding will be disbursed in tranches on an annual basis. The full UK funding will be released so long as the total amount committed by donors meets Gavi’s replenishment target of $7.5 billion. Whether this threshold has been met will be assessed by DFID officials continually over the period 2016 – 2020.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency New Forest West answering member printed Mr Desmond Swayne question first answered 05/12/2014 14:07:09 answering member 55 label Biography information for Sir Desmond Swayne
