The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office publishes updates on all spending over £25,000. Similar to the MHRA’s Covid-19 Yellow Card data, the FCDO provides this information in an inconvenient format, making it difficult for the general public to process and understand. We hope this site goes some way to resolving this issue.
Please make sure you read the FAQ before you contact us with questions.
