Baroness Rawlings

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What assistance, if any, they are offering to HIV sufferers in the Central African Republic. [HL855]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Foreign and Commonwealth Office (Baroness Amos)

We are not providing any direct assistance to HIV sufferers in the Central African Republic (CAR). The Department for International Development assistance to CAR is provided through multilateral channels, including UN agences and the EU (of which DfID's share is approximately 19 per cent).
