<p>UK financial aid to support the Palestinian Authority’s (PA’s) health and education
sectors is used exclusively to pay the salaries of vetted health and education public
servants, including teachers, doctors and nurses, in the West Bank. The EU vets the
list of PA health and education sector employees before every disbursement of financial
aid to ensure only eligible beneficiaries receive UK aid, at a range of grades based
on the PA payroll system. These payments are then independently audited. The average
salary and number of employees earning in excess of 2,000 NIS per month who receive
UK aid therefore could change each time a disbursement is made. The data necessary
to calculate figures for every DFID disbursement is held by the EU.</p>
