Thank you for contacting me about the Home Office and Official Development Assistance (ODA).
I understand that ODA eligible costs of supporting refugees and asylum seekers in the UK have increased significantly, including to reflect support offered to Ukrainian and Afghan citizens. The Government has provided £2.5 billion of additional ODA to mitigate impacts on wider aid budgets and will continue to strike an appropriate balance between fiscal responsibility and the UK's development objectives.
Thank you again for taking the time to contact me.
