International Development written question – answered at on 14 November 2005.
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what steps his Department is taking to encourage more countries to pledge money to the International Finance Facility for Immunisation.
DFID is continuing to work alongside HM Treasury and the Foreign Office to encourage more donors to pledge to the International Finance Facility for Immunisation (IFFIm) through one-on-one meetings and discussions and international conferences. Italy, France, Sweden and Spain remain the core committed European donors, but we are now holding discussions with Norway, Belgium, and Austria and hope that they might also contribute. Outside Europe, we are holding discussions with South Africa, India, Brazil and Japan, all of whom are expressing some interest in participating.
