Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what his Department’s spend on international development has been in each month since August 2019, by country in receipt.

The Statistics on International Development National Statistics report, published on the GOV.UK website, provides an overview of all official UK spend on Official Development Assistance (ODA).

ODA is an international measure and is collected and reported on a calendar year basis. The latest data available (for 2019) is available in Table A4f - "Total UK Bilateral ODA by Country and Government Department and Other Contributor of UK ODA": https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/920053/Table-A4f.ods

It is not possible to disaggregate these figures by month. UK ODA figures for 2020 will be published in Autumn 2021, via Statistics on International Development: Final UK Aid Spend 2020.

The Foreign, Commonwewealth and Development Office publishes regular open data through the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI). This operational data covers current live programmes and will include 2020 spend. The raw data can be accessed at IATI Registry and is shown on the Development Tracker website: https://devtracker.fcdo.gov.uk/
