To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what the funding commitments her Department have made to contribute to the UN sustainable development goals; and if she will make a statement.

The Global Goals are the starting point for DFID’s Strategic Objectives and are embedded across all that the Department does. Through the Bilateral Aid Review and Multilateral Aid Review we will agree on an allocation of DFID’s budget that delivers our desired ambition against the Strategic Objectives through the most effective channels, based on a solid understanding of what works, and providing maximum value for money.
