<p>The UK has committed £240m over two years in support of the Government of Sierra
Leone’s Ebola Recovery Strategy, including major investment in health. Our interventions
will aim to increase the capacity of district and national structures to identify
and respond swiftly to future outbreaks of Ebola or other communicable diseases. We
will build on the surveillance, command and control systems established during the
response.</p><p>In Liberia, DFID has committed £6 million to the Health Sector Pool
Fund over two years, to support access to safe, quality health services. The UK indirectly
supports Guinea’s recovery through its contributions to WHO and other multilateral
organisations. Globally, DFID and the Department of Health are seeking greater commitment
from countries to implement the International Health Regulations, the internationally-agreed
framework for national systems to prevent and respond to public health crises.</p>
