Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what estimate he has made of the proportion of the UK’s total Official Development Assistance spending on (a) least developed countries, (b) lower middle income countries and (c) upper middle income countries in 2020.

Detail on UK Official Development Assistance (ODA) spending in 2020 is not currently available.

In April, the OECD will publish provisional Development Assistance Committee (DAC) countries bilateral ODA by World Bank income group for 2020. The published table will show a UK total by these income groups. When published it will be found in this part of the OECD website: http://www.oecd.org/dac/financing-sustainable-development/development-finance-data/

In the Autumn, FCDO will publish "SID: Final UK Aid Spend 2020". This publication will contain detailed breakdowns including finalised UK bilateral ODA by OECD DAC Income Group.
