Lord Bruce of Bennachie (LD)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 4 November 2025

Debate

Official Development Assistance

Contribution

My Lords, given the impact of cuts in aid and the advance of Russia and China as funders in developing countries, will the Government seek an urgent initiative to promote public and private debt relief to ease the burden in those countries? Will they also do more aid matching to engage the British public, and work with the private sector to encourage development-led partnerships between the public and private sectors?
