Development Aid
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he has plans to publish an international development strategy on the reduction in official development assistance spending.
Answered by Stephen Doughty
The Prime Minister has committed to publishing a single new national security strategy, bringing together all reviews into one document and reflecting the decisions on resource set out on 25 February 2025. This will be published following the Spring Statement in March and ahead of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Summit in June. Detailed decisions on ODA spending will be worked through as part of the ongoing Spending Review.
