Development Aid: Health
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of reductions in ODA spending on the effectiveness of the UK's contributions to (a) global health, (b) vaccination and (c) disease prevention initiatives.
Answered by Stephen Doughty
The impact on specific programmes is being worked through following the decision to reduce UK Official Development Assistance (ODA) from 0.5% of Gross National Income (GNI) to 0.3% in 2027. We will be taking a rigorous approach to ensure all ODA delivers value for money. Announcements will be made following the completion of the ongoing Spending Review process.
