To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what subsidies the UK Government are receiving from foreign allies to fund the continuing involvement of UK forces in Afghanistan. [105682]

We continue to work in close cooperation with other nations but we are receiving no direct subsidies for our military operations in Afghanistan.
