Further to WQ94187, will the First Minister provide a full breakdown of all funding provided over the last 15 years by the partner organisations, Size of Wales, the Mount Elgon Tree Growing Enterprise, and the four other local NGOs, for the tree planting initiative?

Answered by First Minister | Answered on 23/10/2024

Over the last 15 years, the Welsh Government has provided an average of £253,000 per year in grant funding to the Welsh organisation, Size of Wales, to deliver the Mbale Tree Planting Project. This funding is provided to Size of Wales to deliver agreed targets, and it is for them to decide, in agreement with their partners in Mbale, how the funding should be broken down and spent to ensure targets are met.
