Categorised under the topics of International development and Vaccination.

That this House recognises the benefits of encouraging vaccination in developing countries; congratulates the GAVI Alliance and HSBC for the launch of the Vaccine Investment ISA, an innovative new scheme designed to enable investors to participate in a sustainable and ethical investment opportunity that will fund vaccines for children in the developing world; supports the provision that the funds raised through this initiative will go to the International Finance Facility for Immunisation (IFFIm) which will enable the GAVI Alliance to fund vaccines and immunisation programmes in developing nations; congratulates the World Bank and other key stakeholders for their involvement; further congratulates the Government on its leadership in developing world health issues; and calls on the Government to continue its strong support of innovative funding mechanisms such as the IFFIm and the pneumococcal disease Advance Market Commitment, which aims to speed the research and development of life-saving vaccines to prevent pneumococcal disease which kills up to one million children each year, 90 per cent. of whom are from the developing world.
