Answer

Hugh Bayley: To ask the Secretary of State for International Development how much has been contributed by each (a) OECD or Development Assistance Committee country and (b) multilateral aid donor in Official Development Assistance to (i) Kosovo, (ii) Afghanistan and (iii) Iraq since the start of allied military action in each country. [192406] Mr. Gareth Thomas: Details of expenditure (where available) are given for each member country of OECD DAC and the multilateral institutions for the years since allied military action started in each of the countries in question. However, as Kosovo has no legal entity as a separate country, development aid from donors has been delivered through regional programmes which include assistance to other areas in the region including Serbia and Montenegro. Disbursements from donors (apart from the UK) to these regional programmes are shown in the first table followed by DFID bilateral assistance provided to Kosovo.
