Ms Julie Bishop
asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs, in writing, on 15 September 2009:
(1) How many countries have formally pledged their support for Australia’s bid for a temporary seat on the United Nations Security Council, and when were such pledges made.
(2) What have been the costs, including any commitments for future expenditure, associated with gaining these pledges of support from each country.
Mr Stephen Smith (Minister for Foreign Affairs)
—The answer to the honourable member’s question is as follows:
(1) Offers of support are generally made on a confidential basis. Disclosure of numbers and dates can put this confidentiality at risk and also provide valuable information that would assist Australia’s competitors. Australia’s bid was publicly endorsed by the Pacific Islands Forum in 2008 and 2009.
(2) Funding associated with Australia’s campaign is set out in the relevant budget papers. Allocations by financial year are: 2008-09 $1.9m; 2009-10: $5.4m; 2010-11: $5.7m.
