Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, in which regional bilateral programmes he plans to make efficiency savings.
The FCDO is finalising Official Development Assistance (ODA) allocations for 2024/25, and these will be published in the coming weeks. It is right that as a new Government we carefully consider the indicative budgets set by the previous Government.
Ministers will consider how to allocate the FCDO's ODA budget for 2025/26 over the coming months ahead of publication in the Annual Report and Accounts in summer 2025.
