Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of the freeze in foreign aid from the United States of America to (1) programmes jointly funded with the United Kingdom, and (2) multilateral programmes; and how this will impact the United Kingdom's aid programmes and strategy.

We are currently working to assess the implications of the US funding pause across development sectors, geographic regions and multilateral organisations. We are gathering information and working with other donor partners to share analysis of the pause before making any decisions.
