PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Development Aid (23 February 2016)

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, which Departments other than her Department, the Ministry of Defence, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the Department for Energy and Climate Change have responsibility for Overseas Development Assistance (ODA) spending under the terms of the International Development Act 2002; and what proportion of those Departments' ODA spending was subject to the Act in each of the last three years.

Asked by:
Stephen Doughty (Labour)

It is for individual government departments to determine the legal basis of their ODA spend.

DFID does not monitor what proportion of other government departments’ Official Development Assistance spending was subject to IDA 2002.

Details of departmental spend on Official Development Assistance (ODA) can be found in the National Statistics publication Statistics on International Development (SID) at https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-international-development/about/statistics, although this does not identify the proportions of spend under IDA 2002.
