Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between David Taylor and Rachel Reeves

Tuesday 4th March 2025 Commons Chamber

[Rachel Reeves]

I very much agree with the right hon. Gentleman. This is why I met my fellow European Finance Ministers in Cape Town at the G20 last week. All of Europe needs to step up. The British Government are doing so and we need to see that from other countries, too.

[David Taylor (Hemel Hempstead) (Lab)]

T6. Acknowledging that official development assistance will go down to 0.3% of GNI in 2027, can the Minister confirm whether it will remain at 0.5% for the calendar year of 2026, which will help ensure that UK aid keeps the maximum number of people alive for the longest possible time?
