Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, how much and what proportion of the Official Development Assistance budget has been spent on global public goods in each of the last five years.

FCDO Official Development Assistance (ODA) allocations have been guided by the priorities set out in the International Development Strategy. This means focusing on the poorest and most vulnerable, prioritising humanitarian programmes, women and girls work, climate, and British Investment Partnerships.

UK ODA data is published in Statistics on International Development (SID) and is available on GOV.UK for 2017 to 2021, including information on the sector(s) targeted (Table A7: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1135043/Table-A7.ods).
