Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office officials are in regular contact with Gavi and sit on the Gavi Board & Committees. I [Minister Mitchell], last wrote to Gavi's interim-CEO in December 2023. We welcome the Gavi Board's decision to appoint Dr Sania Nishtar as Gavi's new CEO. I will meet with her once she takes up post in March 2024.
