International Development Secretary Alok Sharma said:
I am delighted to have been appointed International Development Secretary. We will work across the whole of government to deliver Brexit and make sure UK aid is tackling global challenges that affect us all, such as climate change, disease and humanitarian disasters.
Investing 0.7% of GNI on international development shows we are an enterprising, outward-looking and truly global Britain that is fully engaged with the world.
I am committed to transforming the lives of the world's poorest and most vulnerable people, giving them access to quality education and jobs, while promoting Britain's economic, security and foreign interests.
