Written Question
Overseas Aid
Wednesday 30th December 2020

Asked by: Lord Bishop of Worcester (Bishops - Bishops)

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of when the economic situation in the UK will allow a return to the target for official development assistance of 0.7 per cent of gross national income.

Answered by Lord Agnew of Oulton

The Government intends to return to the 0.7% target when the fiscal situation allows. We cannot at this moment predict with certainty when the current fiscal circumstances will have sufficiently improved.
