The latest version of Statistics for International Development was published in October 2013 and contains the following UK Official Development Assistance outturn figures for Burma: 2010, £29 million; 2011, £39 million; 2012, £30 million. In June 2013 DFID published a revised Operational Plan for Burma, which contains projected figures for DFID spend in: 2012/13, £32 million; 2013/14, £56 million; 2014/15, £60 million. No UK aid goes directly to the Government of Burma, as programme or budget support.
