DWP In-Donor Refugee Costs (IDRC)
UK - Department for Work and Pensions
The OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC)’s clarifications to the statistical reporting directives on reporting in-donor refugee costs (IDRC) as Official Development Assistance (ODA) state that member countries should report as ODA certain forms of support given to refugees within their first year of arrival within the donor country. In 2023 the UK Government published a methodology setting out how these should be interpreted in a UK context. This clarified that people granted visas under the Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme (ACRS) and the Homes for Ukraine, Ukraine Family, and Ukraine Extension schemes should be classed as refugees for ODA reporting purposes. It also set out which forms of support should be reported as ODA. In line with the OECD DAC clarifications and the UK Government’s IDRC reporting methodology, DWP reports as ODA certain mainstream welfare benefits paid to people with ODA-eligible visa types during their first year in the UK. The ODA-eligible benefits are Universal Credit, Pension Credit, Attendance Allowance, Personal Independence Payments and child Disability Living Allowance.
UK Government annual assessed contribution to the International Labour Organisation
UK - Department for Work and Pensions
The UK Government annual assessed contribution to the regular budget of the International Labour Organisation (ILO), 60% of which is classified as ODA. This applies the OECD DAC coefficient for core contributions to the ILO and represents the proportion of the funds that supports the ILO's development-related activities. The financial data for the budget and transactions equates to the ODA element: i.e. 60% of each payment made to the ILO
