The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, how much of the UK's funding to the Child Nutrition Fund (CNF) has been disbursed through the CNF's (a) programme window and (b) match window.

Answered by Chris Elmore

I refer the Hon Member to the answer provided on 18 November to Question 89032, which sets out the UK's approach to improving nutrition for women and children, including our role as a proud co-founder and Board member of the Child Nutrition Fund (CNF). The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office has disbursed £16.7 million in total to the Child Nutrition Fund since its inception in 2020. Of this £13 million has been disbursed through the Child Nutrition Fund's match window, £1 million through the programme window and £2.7 million through the supplier window.
