Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether it is her policy that (a) securing effective support for the 7th Replenishment for the Global Fund should be a high priority for the G7 and G20 this year and (b) this prioritization should be reflected in the UK’s pledge contribution to the Global Fund’s upcoming 7th Replenishment.

The UK has contributed over £4.1 billion to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. We are proud of the Global Fund's achievements in helping to reduce AIDS-related deaths by 68% and HIV infections by 54%. Our priority is to ensure that UK aid continues to protect millions of people around the world. We are currently reviewing the Global Fund's 7th replenishment investment case and will continue to work with all G7 and G20 members to support progress in the fight against HIV, TB and Malaria.
