Indonesia: Climate Change

Martin Horwood: To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what conditions are attached to the £50 million funding to Indonesia announced in Davos on 29 January 2010 to help fight climate change by tackling deforestation; and what steps his Department is taking to ensure that these funds are not used by the palm oil industry. [324629]

Mr. Thomas: None of the £50 million will go to oil palm companies. DFID hopes to build on work the UK has begun with the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) to agree credible environmental production standards and to secure their use by both producers and buyers. This could involve funding the RSPO itself, academic institutions supporting it and associated NGO networks. DFID expects that most of the funding will support programmes managed by organisations such as the World Bank, the United Nations Development Programme, Oxfam, Transparency International and local non-government organisations who have rigorous auditing and accounting procedures and employ anti-corruption safeguards.

Palestinians: International Assistance

Mr. Crabb: To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what recent estimate he has made of the amount of charitable fundraising carried out in the UK for humanitarian purposes in Gaza via the Union of Good. [325030]

Mr. Michael Foster: The Department of International Development (DFID) has not made an assessment of the amount of charitable fundraising carried out in the UK for humanitarian purposes in Gaza via the Union of Good.

The Union of Good is not a registered charity in the UK.

Sierra Leone: Overseas Aid

Mr. MacShane: To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what projects his Department has funded in Sierra Leone since 2000; and how much his Department has spent on each. [324082]

Mr. Thomas: Details of projects funded by the Department for International Development (DFID) in Sierra Leone from 2004 onwards can be found on the DFID website at:
