answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/12/2022 answer text <p>The World Malaria Report 2022 reported that numbers of malaria cases and deaths remained broadly stable in 2021 following an increase in 2020, with 247 million cases and 619,000 deaths. On the 12th December I (Minister Mitchell) gave the keynote speech at the UK Launch of the World Malaria Report. The UK supports the Sustainable Development Goal 3.3 target to end the epidemic of malaria by 2030. Tackling malaria is also closely linked with the UK's ambition to end the preventable deaths of mothers, newborns and children given it predominantly impacts pregnant women and children under 5. The UK has pledged £1 billion to the Global Fund's seventh replenishment (2023-2025) which will help save over 1 million lives and avert over 28 million new infections. In addition to this the UK also supports research and development into new tools to address malaria and provides bilateral support to malaria endemic countries to strengthen their health systems.</p> answering member constituency Sutton Coldfield answering member printed Mr Andrew Mitchell question first answered 20/12/2022 14:50:41 answering member 1211 label Biography information for Mr Andrew Mitchell

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/07/2022 answer text <p>In 2020, there was the first significant increase in malaria cases and deaths in two decades and we recognise the risk of further resurgence of malaria. Health systems strengthening is critical to reducing this risk. As set out in the International Development Strategy, global health is a priority for UK development policy and programming and within this we will particularly focus on strengthening health systems to improve the resilience of health systems to shocks such as pandemics and to ensure continued progress on malaria and other diseases.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 18/07/2022 15:20:44 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/07/2022 answer text <p>As set out in the International Development Strategy and our global health position papers, global health is a priority for UK development policy and programming. Within this we will particularly focus on strengthening health systems and ending the preventable deaths of mothers, newborns, and children. Our bilateral health programmes will take consideration of malaria's disproportionate impact on pregnant women and children under five as a key driver of preventable deaths, and will strengthen health systems to deliver quality malaria prevention and treatment. Our investment in the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria also delivers large scale malaria interventions for pregnant women and children.</p><p>We also fund research on combatting malaria, including for mothers, babies and children. For instance, our funding to the Medicines for Malaria Venture supports their Malaria in Mothers and Babies strategy, which aims to scale up the availability of preventive malaria treatment in pregnancy and generate evidence on the use of existing antimalarials throughout pregnancy.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 18/07/2022 15:17:16 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/07/2022 answer text <p>The UK is committed to tackling malaria, which is closely linked to our ambition to end preventable deaths of mothers, babies and new-borns. We are concerned by the impact that COVID-19 has had on efforts against malaria, with last year's World Malaria Report recording the first significant increase in malaria deaths in over two decades - up by 69000 - and an increase in the number of malaria cases by 14 million. The majority of our malaria investments are through the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria; the UK remains a strong supporter of the Global Fund, having donated £4.1 billion to date. We are reviewing the Global Fund's investment case for the 7th replenishment and deciding our precise contribution in line with delivering the new International Development Strategy. To work towards ending the epidemic of malaria, we also invest in research to develop new tools to prevent, diagnose and treat malaria and support countries to strengthen their health systems. This has included funding the world's first antimalarial drug for children, which is estimated to have saved over one million lives.</p> answering member constituency Cannock Chase answering member printed Amanda Milling question first answered 05/07/2022 14:58:34 answering member 4454 label Biography information for Dame Amanda Milling
