Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what discussions she has had with her international counterparts on changes in the level of international donor funding for tackling HIV and AIDS between 2014 and 2015.

The UK was the second largest international funder of HIV prevention, treatment and care between 2014 and 2015 and remains committed to helping end AIDS as a public health threat by 2030.

HIV funding was discussed with international counterparts as part of the dialogue on the recent Global Fund Replenishment. The UK Government supports calls for shared responsibility and global solidarity in the response to HIV to achieve the Global Goal target. We strongly believe countries should commit according to their ability to contribute.
