Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, when he plans to announce the UK’s allocation of 2021-22 overseas development aid for (a) Syria and (b) Libya.

Asked by:
Anna McMorrin (Labour)

Answer

As announced last year, the impact of the global pandemic on the UK economy has forced us to take the tough but necessary decision to temporarily reduce how much we spend on Official Development Assistance (ODA).We are now working through the implications of these changes for individual programmes. No decisions have yet been made on individual budget allocations.
