UK Government Spend
In the UK, the 0.7% commitment on Official Development Assistance (ODA) spend applies across government. The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) is the UK’s primary channel for aid but in response to the changing world, more aid is administered by other government departments, drawing on their complementary skills. The International Development Strategy sets the direction for all of the UK government’s development work. Each department is responsible for ensuring that their own ODA budgets are allocated optimally, spent well and published to IATI.
