Lord Donoughue – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department for International Development

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Donoughue on 2015-11-10.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government how much was paid by the Department for International Development to green energy campaign groups between 2010 and 2015 (1) in the UK, and (2) internationally, both as a total and as a percentage of the Department for International Development’s development expenditure.

Earl of Courtown
