The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he has made a recent assessment of the potential merits of making a financial announcement following the Nutrition for Growth summit.

Answered by Stephen Doughty

The Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office (FCDO) remains committed to supporting nutrition in our development work.

The Minister of State for International Development, Latin America and the Caribbean led the UK's delegation to the recent Nutrition for Growth Summit, and reiterated our commitment to nutrition objectives, particularly integrating nutrition into our wider programming.

The FCDO continues to report progress against our financial commitments through its annual Nutrition Accountability Report, as well as through updates to the Global Nutrition Report's Nutrition Accountability Framework.
