99. To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade if Irish Aid has provided funding to organisations that promote and provide termination of pregnancy services; if so, the funding allocated to such organisations from 2018 to date; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [53633/19]

The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade does not provide funding to organisations for the promotion or provision of termination of pregnancy.  The Government's policy for international development, A Better World, published last February continues Ireland’s longstanding focus on improving the health of women and girls, as part of Ireland’s contribution to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
