Thank you very much.
Mr. Reilly-King, you raised a good point: local development. Developing countries are often almost controlled through humanitarian aid. Countries that provide humanitarian aid tell themselves that developing countries don't have the resources for local development and that they will work on that for them. Based on how we currently view international aid, I fear that there will be even more patronage if that aid is provided by private companies. Developing countries are told that, since they are lacking the necessary resources, we will give money to our companies so they can work on local development in those countries' stead.
In international development, we should instead try to fund local companies, and not give money to a company that may not be familiar with all the needs of the population and the public institutions. This is a matter of public institutions and good governance. These issues are not at all part of those institutions' policies.
This has to do with the direction humanitarian aid is taking. Is this the right direction to take in terms of humanitarian aid? Should we not, as Mr. Reilly-King said, invest in private local development instead of using major private companies for large-scale development?
