House of Lords written question – answered at on 21 November 2012.
To ask Her Majesty's Government how much funding they have given to Geo/Jang Group in the present and previous financial years; and what is the predicted allocation of funds for this organisation in the next two financial years.
DfID has not provided any direct funding to the GEO/Jang group. The Mir Khalil ur Rahman Foundation, which implements the awareness raising component of a DfID funded education programme in Pakistan, has however purchased television time from GEO at a discounted rate, as part of a transparent process of subcontracting media organisations to deliver this aspect of the programme.
