answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/09/2020 answer text <p>The UK supports safe, accessible and affordable self-care interventions as part of our commitment to ensuring universal access to sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) in developing countries. This is more important than ever given the detrimental impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on accessibility of SRHR services.</p><p>The UK has invested in the roll out of self-injectable contraceptives in over 35 countries through our partner UNFPA Supplies, our flagship Women's Integrated Health Programme (WISH) and FCDO's bilateral health programmes.</p><p>The UK is also working with governments to increase the availability and affordability of quality-assured combi-packs for safe medical abortion in contexts where it is legal. UK funded research is helping to develop a new self-care product, a monthly vaginal ring to help reduce the risk of HIV transmission which can be administered by women themselves. And we are working with partners, including WISH, to expand the use of self-care delivery and telemedicine as part of their COVID-19 response to maintain access to vital SRHR services.</p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 29/09/2020 15:51:22 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg

Data for 2014/15 will be published in late January 2016.</p><br /><p>DFID supports reproductive health through a variety of bilateral channels including: projects and programmes at the country level; strengthening health systems in our partner countries to deliver improved reproductive health outcomes; and funding research. We also provide support through multilateral channels and global partnerships such as the Global Fund. In 2013/14, bilateral spend on reproductive health was £49.4 million. Bilateral spend on family planning also supports better reproductive health outcomes and in 2013/14, bilateral spend on family planning was £127.0 million. This is in support of our commitment, made by the Prime Minister at the 2012 London Summit, to double our spending on family planning.</p> answering member printed Earl of Courtown question first answered 25/01/2016 17:55:22 answering member 3359 label Biography information for The Earl of Courtown attachment 1 file name SID2015c.pdf title SID
