Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what proportion of overseas development assistance she estimates will be spent by departments other than her Department for each year until 2019-20.

Table 1 below provides the estimated proportion of Official Development Assistance (ODA) to be spent by other government departments and cross-government funds based on the Spending Review 2015 settlement. Funding is dispersed across a wide range of departments and cross-government funds. Expected proportions are based on ODA budget allocations announced at Spending Review 2015 in order to meet the government’s commitment to spend 0.7 per cent of Gross National Income (GNI) on ODA in each calendar year. Adjustments will be made to the ODA budget to reflect the latest economic forecasts throughout the spending review period.
