The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if his Department will publish a list of (a) programmes and (b) countries that have had their budgets adjusted since July 2024 including the reasons for each adjustment.

Answered by Stephen Doughty

The former Minister for Development set out the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office's (FCDO) indicative Official Development Assistance (ODA) programme allocations for 2024/25 in a Written Ministerial Statement (HCWS421) on 6 February 2025.

We will publish the FCDO's final ODA programme outturn for 2024/25 in the Annual Report & Accounts in summer 2025.

We will set out our spending plans for future years following the completion of the Spending Review and departmental resource allocation processes.
