This year Ireland will give €914 million for official development assistance. It means Ireland is well on course to reach 0.7 per cent of GNP by 2012, three years ahead of our EU partners.
Irish NGOs and missionaries will benefit from the increased resources available.
It is Irish policy that all aid to the developing world is untied.
