Recommendation
The Government must adopt a marker to tag aid programmes with a substantial atrocity prevention component, which it should use when reporting spending to the International Aid Transparency Index.
Government Response Summary
The government will consider whether it would be appropriate to use another approach for marking atrocity prevention programmes, as the OECD's Development Assistance Committee does not currently have an atrocity prevention marker.
Paragraph Reference: 90
Government Response Accepted in Part
HM Government Accepted in Part
Partially agree. 42. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) Development Assistance Committee, of which the UK Government aligns aid markers to, does not currently have an atrocity prevention marker to tag aid programmes. We will consider whether it would be appropriate to use another approach for marking atrocity prevention programmes.
