Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office: Disability
Asked by: Richard Baker (Labour - Glenrothes and Mid Fife) Tuesday 8th April 2025 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, when he plans to publish his Department's updated Disability Inclusion and Rights Strategy. Answered by Hamish Falconer - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) The 2022 - 2030 Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) Disability Inclusion and Rights strategy provides a long-term framework for the FCDO's international approach to disability inclusion. When we published it, we committed to updating it at midpoint to ensure that it would remain current and reflective of Government priorities. On 25th February, the Prime Minister delivered the government's commitment to increase defence spending to 2.5% of gross domestic product from April 2027, to be funded by a reduction to Official Development Assistance spending. While we had anticipated updating the strategy in advance of the Global Disability Summit in Berlin on 2-3 April, we will explore the options for updating it following the conclusion of the multi-year Spending Review and resource allocation processes. |

7 Apr 2025
The work of the UK Statistics Authority Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee (Select) Not accepting submissions The Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee will examine the performance of the UK Statistics Authority (UKSA), and its two executive offices, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and the Office for Statistics Regulation (OSR). In light of recent debate and discussion about the efficacy of the UK’s employment figures, Committee members will explore whether issues with ONS’s Labour Force Survey are an anomaly, or whether issues with the organisation’s performance run deeper. In doing so, MPs will scrutinise some of ONS’s most important programmes: the Transformed Labour Force Survey, Integrated Data Service, and its reimagining of the traditional Census. Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry. |
