Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what representations her Department has received from the Government of Iraq on development aid for Iraq after the liberation of Mosul.

DFID has regular discussions and meetings with officials from the Government of Iraq about future development plans for Iraq after the liberation of Mosul and how the international community can support Iraq in the longer term. In addition to the UK’s ongoing humanitarian and stabilisation assistance funding, DFID is providing a £300 million loan guarantee to support the World Bank’s programme in Iraq that is helping the Government of Iraq cope with the impact of low oil prices and the long term consequences of the conflict with Daesh.
