Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what proportion of her Department's funding in response to the Syrian crisis to date was delivered by means of (a) UK organisations, (b) UN agencies, (c) international NGOs and (d) Syrian NGOs.

The UK has pledged £2.46 billion to the Syria crisis, our largest ever response to a single humanitarian crisis. Of this, £2.2 billion has already been allocated by DFID to its partners to provide lifesaving support to millions of Syrians, support refugees to remain in countries in the region, and enable their host communities to accommodate them.

A breakdown of funding allocated to date by agency type is shown in the table below. This excludes projects under the Conflict, Stability and Security Fund.

DFID has not allocated funding directly to Syrian NGOs. As many of our partners work with such groups on the ground, we classify them as downstream partners.
