	question text	To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what proportion of UK Aid's humanitarian funding has been allocated to local and national responders, to fulfil the UK's obligation to reach the global target of 25 per cent by 2020 as set out in the 2016 OECD World Humanitarian Summit's Grand Bargain.

	uin	109444
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 31/10/2017 answer text <p>The Grand Bargain commits aid organisations and donors to achieve by 2020 a global, aggregated target of at least 25 per cent of humanitarian funding to local and national responders as directly as possible. DFID does not currently capture the proportion of UK humanitarian funding that goes to such responders. However, the UK’s newly published Humanitarian Reform Policy outlines how national and local actors will be at the centre of DFID’s work. DFID is making progress on this, for example, through support to the Start Fund (£30 million 3 year programme agreed until 2018) that provides rapid support to humanitarian crises such as a landslide in Sierra Leone, flooding in Nepal and Bangladesh, and displacement in the Philippines caused by conflict in Mindanao. Start Fund report that 42% of projects in 2015/16 were implemented fully or partially by a local partner.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 31/10/2017 10:40:46 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
