Closed audit on overseas aid

Closed on

We urge the Treasury to follow good business practice and arrange an immediate audit of the overseas aid grants to justify the grants they continue to make. Those that are not warranted, not needed, not “fit for purpose”, not used for the intended purpose should be redirected to those in this Country who need immediate aid due to flood damage, cut back in NHS care and education etc. George Osborne should not be cutting back on services for the residents here in order to fund overseas aid. Any additional funding he deems justified should come from the redirected funds.
