To ask the Secretary of State for International Development how much Oxfam received from his Department in each of the last three years, broken down by project or programme; and how much is expected to be given in the next financial year. (180512)

Total DFID expenditure through Oxfam is set out in the table. Under the current Public Partnership Agreement (PPA) Oxfam GB and DFID collaborate on three strategic areas: sustainable livelihoods; strengthening the voice of the poor in decision-making; and supporting young people as advocates for pro-poor change. In addition, DFID supports Oxfam GB’s humanitarian and campaigning work.
