To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, pursuant to the Answer of 11 June 2014, Official Report, column 181W, on Afghanistan, for what reason her Department did not engage with the Afghan Investment Support Agency on the Bost airfield project.
This question was answered on 17th July 2014
The Bost Airfield and Agri-Business Park project comprised two separate components. On the airfield upgrade component, DFID worked closely with the Ministry of Transport and Civil Aviation, which operates airfields and airports in Afghanistan, to complete the upgrade. All works have now been handed over to the relevant authorities.
