Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, pursuant to his Answer of 13 September 2021 to Question 45259 on Afghanistan: Overseas Aid, how much of the £286 million announced as aid for the people of Afghanistan is (a) from ODA allocations as part of the 0.5% gross national income commitment this year and (b) additional spending.

£143m was originally allocated within the 0.5% gross national income commitment for this year.

The uplift will take into account potential changes in GNI and an assessment of spending forecasts across the wider department.
