Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what funding commitments she has made in support of (a) the African Development Bank and (b) other multilateral partners mentioned in Baroness Chapman’s G20 speech on 25 July 2025.

We are proud to host the 17th Replenishment of the African Development Bank in London this December. The UK is actively engaged in replenishment negotiations, and our pledge will reflect the outcome of these. In November, with South Africa, we will co-host the 8th replenishment of the Global Fund to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. As co-hosts, we are appealing to donors to make as strong as possible pledges to support the resilience of the Global Fund's partnership model. The UK's pledge to the 8th replenishment will be determined following the conclusion of the process to set multi-year Official Development Assistance (ODA) funding allocations.

The UK continues to support other vital partners. We have committed £1.25 billion to Gavi to help vaccinate up to 8 million children from 2026-30, and £1.98 billion to the International Development Association - the World Bank's fund for the poorest countries - over three years. We are working through detailed decisions on how the ODA budget will be used from 2026/27 to 2028/29, and further announcements will be made in due course.
