Dr. Tonge: To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what level of funding the UNHCR has provided for support to Iraqi refugees in Iran in each of the last 12 years; and what the United Kingdom contribution has been in each year. [96168] Clare Short: UNHCR fund specific refugee groups or specific regions when donors earmark their funding accordingly. If no earmarked funding is available for specific programmes, UNHCR use funds earmarked for that region, or, if no regional funds have been earmarked, from completely unearmarked funds. UNHCR's earmarked funding for Iraqis in Iran since 1990 is as follows: _________________________________________________________________________________________________. US$ 1990 787,402 1991 58,810,332 1992 2,000,000 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. There has been no earmarked funding for Iraqis in Iran since 1992. UNHCR's earmarked funding for south-west Asia, which may have partly been used to fund Iraqis in Iran, is as follows: _________________________________________________________________________________________________. US$ 1992 2,240,000 1993 0 1994 0 1995 0 1996 284,174 1997 2,421,348 1998 1,000,000 1999 900,000 2000 290,103 2001 3,623,942 2002 856,193 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. None of the above funds were provided by the UK. DFID is not currently providing funding to UNHCR for the Iraqi refugees in Iran. DFID's funding has been channelled through the AMAR International Charitable Foundation, a London based NGO. DFID has provided £2.25 million in funding to AMAR over the last three years in support of their health care and water and sanitation interventions to the 95,000 Marsh Arabs and refugees. Further support for the future is under consideration. Support has focused on the provision of medical care and the improvement of sanitary conditions.
