这位财相表示,英国政府会把新增的援助预算全部投入应对叙利亚难民之类的危机。一名财政部助理表示:“这是一项根本反思的一部分。
Britain is committed to spending 0.7 per cent of gross domestic product on aid, meaning thebudget could rise sharply by the end of the decade as the economy grows.
英国承诺支出相当于国内生产总值(GDP) 0.7%的资金投入援助。这意味着,随着英国经济增长,到本10年结束时,援助预算可能会大幅上升。
Mr Osborne also said more of the aid budget could be diverted to helping local councils withhousing costs for incomers, without breaching international guidelines.
奥斯本还表示,可能会分出更多援助预算,在不违反国际指引的前提下,帮助英国的地方政府解决难民的安置成本。
