answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/11/2018 answer text <p>In July 2018 the UK committed to provide up to £38 million over five years (2018-2023) to support economic development in Gaza and the West Bank. Through this programme we will increase trade and job creation across Gaza and the West Bank by helping to enable greater movement and access for people and goods.

In addition, this UK aid programme will help to install solar panels for hospitals, businesses and households, increasing the availability of electricity in Gaza.</p><p> </p><p>Since July 2018, we have been undertaking routine design and early-implementation stage activities, such as assessing implementing partners to ensure they meet DFID’s delivery standards, clarifying and agreeing roles and responsibilities, and setting out expected outcomes, results and timelines.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 07/11/2018 16:51:54 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt

Across 2016 and 2017, the UK contributed in excess of £100m to IOM and £300m to the ICRC in support of their work with those affected by humanitarian crises. It is not possible to disaggregate the amount of this funding utilised in Bosnia and Herzegovina since 2016.</p><p> </p><p>The Department for International Development has also committed to provide IOM with an annual contribution of £6m, and ICRC with £63m core unearmarked funding (up to 2021). This funding will enable both IOM and the ICRC to continue their critical work with some of the world’s most vulnerable, as well as ambitious system-wide improvements to deliver the greatest possible impact for those most in need.</p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 09/11/2018 15:00:10 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates
