The Government has not received any formal requests for assistance from the Overseas Territories thus far. Lord Ahmad, however, has announced at the Overseas Territories Joint Ministerial Council the setup of OT-UK workshops that will be scheduled from spring next year to provide technical support to the territories. The UK Government will also consider what financial support is needed for the Official Development Assistance-eligible territories.
