	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/06/2018 answer text <p>​UK expenditure on UN peacekeeping includes the following: our assessed (mandatory) contributions for individual peacekeeping operations; funding for UK troop deployments to Cyprus, South Sudan and Somalia and a number of staff officers and police deployed to UN peacekeeping missions and UN headquarters. We have also funded projects in the UN's Department of Peacekeeping Operations (DPKO) with the purpose of making peacekeeping more effective and efficient. Our expenditure on UN peacekeeping comes from the Cross Government Conflict, Security and Stability Fund (CSSF) and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.</p><p>Our assessed (mandatory) contributions for individual UN Peacekeeping missions were £265m in 2017/18, £277m in 2016/17, £312m in 2015/16, £347m in 2014/15, £304m in 2013/14, £324m in 2012/13, £367m in 2011/12. FCO internal records do not cover earlier years: however, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office Annual Report states that our assessed contributions for peacekeeping overall (including contributions to peacekeeping undertaken by other multilateral organisations) was £408m. The funded projects in DPKO, via the CSSF, cost £4.4m in 2017/18, £2.6m in 2016/17 and £3.1m in 2015/16. Our UK troop deployment to Cyprus costs £18m per year and our troop deployments to South Sudan and Somalia cost £15m in 2016/17 with figures currently not available for 2017/18.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Cities of London and Westminster answering member printed Mark Field question first answered 04/06/2018 16:49:06 answering member 1405 label Biography information for Mark Field
