Since the introduction of the early learning for two-year-olds (EL2) entitlement the department has collected data on its uptake but does not break this data down by whether or not parents are in working families. Parents may be eligible for EL2 if they are in receipt of Universal Credit and have a household income of less than £15,400. Parents might also be eligible regardless of work status or income if their child is looked after, is in receipt of Disability Living Allowance or has an education, health and care plan.

Loans are classed as Official Development Assistance (ODA) where they meet the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) criteria for ODA eligibility, including being provided on concessional terms and having the promotion of economic development and welfare as their primary objective.

Under current OECD rules, only the grant-equivalent element of an eligible loan is recorded as ODA, rather than the full value of the loan.

The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) is prioritising Official Development Assistance (ODA) where humanitarian needs are most acute - to reach those in greatest need and reduce the harm caused by violence and atrocities, including in Ukraine, Gaza, and Sudan. With greater instability, humanitarian need growing, and poverty becoming more concentrated in places affected by conflict, we are increasing the proportion of spending in fragile and conflict affected states by around 13 percentage points to over 70 per cent of all FCDO country and regional spending by 2028/29, and will spend £1.4 billion per year in countries with the most humanitarian need over this Spending Review period. With this support, we want to see increased allocation of humanitarian resources to cost-effective, localised delivery mechanisms; and a more streamlined, prioritised and efficient multilateral humanitarian system.

The Hook Meadow scheme located in Medway, funded through Brownfield Land Release Fund 2.3, closed in June 2025. All funding awarded was returned.

The scheme closed due to significant delays by the local authority in the review of property assets relating to the library and community hubs. As the Hook Meadow Community Hub/Library is located on the same site as the proposed homes, the development could not move forward until decision making around the community hub was completed.

NHS England is responsible for determining allocations of financial resources to integrated care boards (ICBs). NHS England’s allocations policy aims to support equal opportunity of access for equal need, as well as NHS England’s duties to reduce health inequalities that are amenable to healthcare.

The Medium Term Planning Framework sets out the priority deliverables and the reform opportunities that ICBs and providers need to deliver for the next three years and the broader strategic aims that will need to be reflected in five year plans developed by each organisation. This includes expectations on prevention, and on neighbourhood health, including primary and community care. Further guidance on neighbourhood health has also been set out in the subsequent Neighbourhood health framework.
