The 2020 Spending Review confirmed funding for the UK to remain the largest donor to the World Bank's arm for the poorest countries, the International Development Association. We are currently assessing the budgetary implications of the Spending Review on all programme lines in 2021/22 to ensure strategic coherence of our aid budget, and until this process is complete we cannot confirm specific allocations.
