Results achieved through DFID's Multilateral Programme: ensured 99.1 million people had enough food to eat (World Food Programme); immunised 37.3 million children against preventable diseases (The Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunisation); detected and treated 900,000 cases of tuberculosis (The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria); gave 7.3 million households clean water to drink with a new water supply (Asian Development Bank); equipped 6.6 million people with new electricity connections (over 2009-2011 period; African Development Bank). Key reforms in the year include: launching the independent Commission for Aid Impact; piloting cash on delivery contracts and other forms of payment by results; reforming CDC, the development finance institution.
