Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what financial support for the Backpack Health Worker Team programme in Burma her Department will provide in the next two years.
DFID has not made plans to fund the Backpack Health Worker Team through our bilateral programme in Burma after our current funding commitments with them conclude. DFID continues to support the 3MDG Trust Fund in Burma which supports many local NGOs across Burma in health activities.
