Development Aid: Water
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what proportion of the UK aid budget is dedicated to the development of water, sanitation, and hygiene infrastructure in low- and middle-income countries.
- Answer
-
In 2021 the UK spent £78 million of bilateral Official Development Assistance (ODA) on water and sanitation, this is equivalent to 1.1% of the overall bilateral budget. This excludes our share of multilateral spend, where there is a significant proportion of spend on water, sanitation and hygiene. We do not have an accurate figure for 2022 spend yet
