USA: International Assistance

Question

To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they have had with the government of the United States of America on the future of theĀ African Growth and Opportunity Act and its effectiveness to date in delivering the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Answer

We have not directly discussed the African Growth and Opportunity Act with the US administration. Progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals will require collective action, and the UK will continue to work with all partners towards that vision, including to reduce barriers to trade to support growth and development.
