The Department for International Development has not provided direct funds in the current financial year to projects in developing states tackling illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing.<\/p>
DfID has provided funds to multilateral agencies and global funds which support ongoing efforts to improve marine governance including tackling illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. For example, UK support to the FAO\u2019s core functions includes the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department. The FAO hosts the International Plan of Action (IPOA) to Prevent, Deter, and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing (IUU), which are to be implemented by countries. In addition, UK support to the Global Environment Facility contributes to investments in international waters to improve and implement governance frameworks.<\/p>

The table below shows the UK contributions to the World Bank (specifically to IBRD, the non-concessional lending arm of the World Bank) in paid in capital and callable capital in each of the last five years.<\/p>
<\/p>
Please note that the UK did not pay in additional capital to IBRD or contribute additional callable capital in 2010. Additional contributions to multilateral development bank\u2019s capital are infrequent and only happen through General or Selective Capital Increases (known as GCIs and SCIs). The most recent of these for IBRD became effective in 2011.<\/p>
<\/p>
The paid in amount is fixed in US dollar terms. As such the Sterling amount varies slightly each year depending on the exchange rate. The callable element increases on a pro-rata basis as each paid in contribution is made and is reported in US Dollars in IBRD\u2019s accounts.<\/p>
