Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if she will hold discussions with Cabinet colleagues on increasing spending on international development to 0.7% of GDP in the next spending review.

This Government is committed to restoring ODA spending at the level of 0.7 percent of GNI as soon as fiscal circumstances allow. The Government is currently undertaking a Spending Review and will set out its approach to the House in due course.
