Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if he will publish his Department's (a) forward spending plans for 2022-23, (b) cross-departmental development results and (c) country aid priorities for 2022-23.

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.

The FCDO's Annual Report and Accounts will include detail on the FCDO's performance, including on development.

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.
