Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether the Government plans to provide financial support to cover the ancillary costs of each vaccine dose donated to low-income countries.

The UK has worked closely with COVAX on its recently published investment opportunity, including its financing assessments for the purchase and distribution of ancillary vaccination equipment. We are continually assessing the developing global vaccination picture, and considering how best to prioritise UK development spend.
