Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether the Arab Partnership Economic Facility for Tunisia will concentrate on productive investment; and whether they will promote joint public–private investments designed to increase employment there, whether they are jointly British and Tunisian or wholly British.
This question was answered on 20th February 2015
The Arab Partnership Economic Facility supports job creation, economic reform, and effective and accountable institutions in Tunisia. This includes a £32million contribution to the regional Deauville Transition Fund, which is supporting a Public Private Partnership (PPP) project in Tunisia. Bilaterally, the UK funded a visit by a UK Government expert to Tunisia in 2014 to share UK PPP experience. UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) is exploring options to promote British investment in Tunisia, including through PPPs.
