Answered by Nick Hurd
As set out in the UK Aid Strategy, our aid will focus on tackling the global challenges of our time, meeting our promises to the world’s poor and putting international development at the heart of our national security and foreign policy. DFID has reviewed its aid programme to inform how we allocate our resources, to where our aid is most needed and where the best results can be gained for taxpayers' money, and to provide an effective response to deliver the Spending Review, the UK Aid Strategy and the Strategic Defence and Security Review.
