The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) welcomes the Independent Commission for Aid Impact (ICAI)’s review of the UK’s humanitarian response to COVID-19. Independent scrutiny is important to ensure that our humanitarian work continues to maximise efficiency, effectiveness and value for money as we support those who need it most.

The FCDO welcomes ICAI’s recognition of the substantial contribution that the UK made to the international humanitarian response:

  • saving lives
  • reducing hardship
  • building future resilience

We accept the recommendations of the review. This document outlines our response.
