Our overseas development assistance in 2017-18 for Papua New Guinea is about $546 million, including about $90 million for health. Combating HIV and other serious health problems remains a priority. The recently approved funding for integrated health programs that include HIV prevention and treatment will continue to support the PNG government to deliver better services using its own systems. We also work with other partners, including government, local organisations, the UN and Global Fund, to ensure HIV services are sustainable. Planning is underway for a new health program that will assist vulnerable groups in Papua New Guinea and focus on strengthening health security.

Question agreed to.
