Lord Chidgey – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department for International Development

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Chidgey on 2014-04-09.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what measures they take in concert with the United Nations and the European Union to ensure that international aid is fairly and efficiently distributed and that waste and corrupt practices are avoided.

Lord Bates

There is no single international system designed to coordinate the level and distribution of international aid. However, the key determinant of where donor funds are distributed is the dialogue and coordination within each recipient country which is, where possible, led by the recipient country’s government.
