To ask His Majesty's Government, following their pledge of £1bn to the Seventh Replenishment of the Global Fund, whether they plan to make additional bilateral investments to that Fund.

The Foreign Secretary and Ministers carefully considered funding options in light of the current and forecasted UK and global economic situation and our other essential ODA commitments. The Global Fund remains one of our top global health investments, and our pledge of £1 billion reflects the high priority we place on the fight against these diseases. There are currently no plans to make a further contribution before the eighth replenishment. The UK remains the third largest donor overall to the Global Fund and has invested over £4.4 billion to date.
