The creation of the FCDO has brought together diplomacy and development into a single organisation.

On 21 April, the Foreign Secretary laid a Written Ministerial Statement in Parliament which outlined the allocation of FCDO ODA for 2021/22. At present, Officials are working through the implementation (and corresponding details) of these decisions with partners and suppliers.
