Senator Conroy: The Minister for Foreign Affairs has provided the following answer the the honourable senator's question: (1) The total estimated amount and percentage of AusAID funding spent on family planning activities were: (a) In 2008-09 $8 million or .25 per cent of total AusAID ODA expenditure (b) In 2009-10 $10 million or .29 per cent of total AusAID ODA expenditure (c) In 2010-11 $40 million or 1.02 per cent of total AusAID ODA expenditure The majority of family planning activities funded by AusAID are not recorded under the DAC code 13030. Most family planning activities are recorded under either 13020 (reproductive health) or more general health codes such as 12220 (basic health care). AusAID's reporting on family planning expenditure is calculated by activity and sub-component which provide a more comprehensive and accurate picture of family planning expenditure than using DAC codes. The amount of AusAID funding recorded against DAC code 13030 is $6,094,680 in 2009-10 and $1,310,473 (estimate) in 2010-11. This equates to .18 per cent and .03 per cent respectively of total annual AusAID ODA expenditure. As outlined above, these figures represent a fraction of actual AusAID expenditure on family planning. AusAID provided approximately $20 million in 2009-10 and $34 million in 2010-11 to UNFPA. This funding was provided for UNFPA to undertake a range of activities including improving access to family planning and reproductive health services, maternal and child health activities, reducing gender based violence, training of health workers and assisting population surveys.
