Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, further to the FCDO Annual Report and Accounts 2025-26, HC521, of 16 July 2026, pages 90 and 100, for what reason the FCDO Supervisory Board met once in 2025-26.

Answer

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office's (FCDO) Supervisory Board met once during the 2025-26 reporting period, on 28 January 2026. This was in part due to the change of Foreign Secretary during the reporting period. The Board's remit for performance, delivery and strategic leadership of the Department was maintained through the Department's wider corporate governance structures.
