The way to end poverty and aid dependency is through inclusive economic growth, jobs, investment and trade. I recently launched DFID\u2019s Economic Development Strategy which sets out my Department\u2019s commitment to this agenda and the steps we are taking to deliver our priorities.

The UK is the largest contributor to the United Nations (UN) administered Iraq Humanitarian Pooled Fund (IHPF) and since 2015 has disbursed £54m to the fund.

Since summer 2014, the UK has committed £169.5m of humanitarian assistance to Iraq, including to internally displaced people in the Kurdistan region. UK assistance is provided through the UN which coordinates distribution and delivery. Therefore the UK does not specifically earmark humanitarian assistance for the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG). Since 2014, the UK has provided support to the KRG, to build the capacity of the Joint Crisis Coordination Centre (JCCC) which coordinates KRG humanitarian activities and liaises with the Government of Iraq, UN and other actors involved in the humanitarian response in Iraq. The UK is also supporting UN agencies that play a direct role in helping the KRG manage the impact of operations in Mosul and elsewhere in Iraq.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4137", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Rory Stewart"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Penrith and The Border"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Rory Stewart"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-01-24", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-01-24T17:01:24.167Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "20"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-01-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Kurds: Internally Displaced People"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, how much funding her Department has provided to the Kurdistan regional government for support of internally displaced people in the Kurdistan region since 2014; and if she will make a statement.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3960", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Henry Smith"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Crawley"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Henry Smith"} ], "uin" : "60509"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/659638", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for International Development"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/659638/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The 2016 Multilateral Development Review sets out ambitious plans to enhance our multilateral partners\u2019 financial accountability. We will demand that our partners meet international aid transparency standards and pass the same expectation to their partners. We are challenging multilaterals to work towards full transparency by publishing all spending over £500, as DFID does, and we are expanding our use of payment by results approaches and performance contracts, to introduce greater accountability. These measures will further improve the effectiveness of the international aid system, deliver better value for money for UK taxpayers and better outcomes for the world\u2019s poorest people.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4123", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Wharton of Yarm"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stockton South"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "James Wharton"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2016-12-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2016-12-20T12:51:56.243Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "20"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2016-12-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "International Assistance"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what plans her Department has to introduce greater financial accountability to the international aid system.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3960", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Henry Smith"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Crawley"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Henry Smith"} ], "uin" : "57797"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/177900", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for International Development"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/177900/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Last year, the Secretary of State instructed the UK\u2019s representatives at the Inter-American Development Bank and World Bank to vote against all new proposals for financial support to the Government of the Republic of Argentina presented by these institutions, while reserving the right to support proposals that can demonstrate exceptional benefits to the poorest people of Argentina. Our position on this has not changed. These are the only Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs), in which the UK is a shareholder and from which the Government of Argentina borrows.<\/p>

The World Bank Group has a Country Programme Strategy for Argentina which sets out planned areas for cooperation from 2015 to 2018. No new loan proposals for Argentina have been presented to the World Bank Board since 2012. We are keeping the situation under close review.<\/p>
