Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what account her Department's bilateral and multilateral aid budgets take of the guidance from the UNAIDS-Lancet Commission on Defeating AIDS-Advancing Global Health published in June 2015.
We welcome the report of the UNAIDS-Lancet Commission. Its focus on prevention, sexual and reproductive health and rights and tailoring the HIV response to the public health needs of each country are in line with long standing UK policy.
We are currently undertaking a number of internal reviews to ensure we are in the right place to deliver our objectives and maximise our value for money and impact. Our future contributions to the Global Fund and country programmes are being considered as part of this. We will lay out further investment plans in the future.
