CaSE submission to DfID allocations inquiry

Following increased use of DfID funding to support research, CaSE responded to the inquiry by writing to the Committee’s Chair.

Following the outcome of the 2015 Spending Review, around £1.5bn resource funding from the Official Development Assistance budget held in the Department for International Development will be transferred to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills to fund research in-line with ODA priorities. We therefore welcome this opportunity to respond to the International Development Select Committee’s DfID allocation of resources inquiry.
