Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what proportion of the Official Development budget for 2022-23 has been allocated as of 10 October 2022; and if he will publish a breakdown of how that funding has been distributed.
Due to the UK's significant support to the people seeking sanctuary in the UK from conflict in Ukraine and Afghanistan, the FCDO was not able to publish forward programme allocations in our Annual Report as the original allocations not be accurate. We remain committed to transparency and will provide updates to Parliament on spending plans in due course.
A final estimate of UK ODA, the ODA:GNI ratio and more detailed breakdowns of UK ODA is published annually in Statistics on International Development publications.
