A Bill to make provision about the definition of international development assistance; and for connected purposes.
This bill would set out a formal definition of what counts as international development assistance (foreign aid) in UK law. It would specify which activities and kinds of spending are eligible as aid, and include connected provisions to implement and enforce that definition. The goal is to remove ambiguity and ensure consistent accounting and reporting of UK aid.
