Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what estimate she has made of the amount of Official Development Assistance to be allocated by her Department to the International Financing Facility for Education.
The UK supports the principle of a new financing mechanism for education led by the multilateral development banks to target the financing gap in lower middle income countries. Once the technical design work has been concluded by the Education Commission and the multilateral development banks I will set out the UK’s final position.
