Montserrat: Development Aid
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether there is a limit to the Official Development Assistance available to Montserrat.
Answered by Stephen Doughty
The UK remains committed to meeting the reasonable needs of the Overseas Territories (OTs) where financial self-sufficiency is not possible. As such, the OTs continue to have the first call on Official Development Assistance to facilitate sustainable economic growth and development.
We have recently informed Montserrat of their new allocation, and I held a positive and constructive call with Premier Meade on 25 March.
