The Government remains committed to spending 0.7% of gross national income (GNI) on official development assistance (ODA). Total planned DEL spend in 2015/16 across Government on ODA did not change between March and July budgets. The Government does not publish departmental figures for planned DEL expenditure on ODA. DFID publishes actual ODA spent by departments, of which the latest provisional figures are available for 2014.
