I have been to a number of places, including Kenya, the Sudanese border and Gaza. In one of the areas I visited, I found two different organisations and both of them were getting the same level of funding. This was not from the Department of Foreign Affairs. One organisation was looking after and providing education to approximately 300 people and the other one, with the same amount of money, was providing education to 3,000 people. How does Irish Aid check that it is getting the results and the best value for the aid it is giving?
