Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, how much of the £5.17 million in Official Development Assistance allocated to Cameroon for financial year 2021-22 will be spent on supporting the Interim Agreement establishing an Economic Partnership Agreement between the UK and Cameroon.

Full budgets per country for 2021-22 and a final audited spend for 2020-21 will be published in due course, including in our regular Statistics on International Development and in the FCDO Annual Report and Accounts.

We are supporting Cameroon to take full advantage of the UK-Cameroon Economic Partnership Agreement through the UK Trade Partnerships Programme. The programme will work in partnership with government ministries, producers, trade support institutions and industry associations to improve trade through better use of the UK's development-focussed trade agreements.
