In 2015, the necessity to hit 0.7% of GDP was enshrined in UK law. While the obligation can’t be enforced through the courts, the international development secretary has to explain themselves to Parliament if the UK doesn’t meet the target.,

And yet our contribution of development aid to the world is the second highest in the world after the USA. Shame on the other countries.... Shame....
