I wish to inform the House of the publication of the Prosperity Fund’s fourth annual report for the financial year 2019-20.

Over the last four years, the Prosperity Fund has aimed to promote economic growth and reduce poverty in developing countries. As well as contributing towards achieving the UN sustainable development goals, the fund has responded to the increasing demand from developing countries to build deeper trade, investment partnerships, and economic relations with other countries.

I am placing a copy of “The Prosperity Fund: Annual Report 2019/20” in the Library of both Houses. The publication of the report reflects the Government’s continuing commitment to transparency in the delivery of official development assistance.
