<p>Overseas Development Assistance (ODA) is reported by the Organisation for Economic
Cooperation and Development’s Development Assistance Committee (OECD DAC) through
its donor states as a proportion of Gross National Income (GNI). DFID calculates ODA
disbursements to measure its stated goal of achieving 0.7% during 2013 and in order
that international comparisons can be made with other DAC donor states.</p><p> </p><p>
</p><p> </p><p>The average ODA to GNI ratio for 2013 for all DAC donor states is 0.397%.
The UK GNI for 2013 (using the ESA95 unadjusted for (Eurostat) reservations methodology)
was £1,622,166m. If the average percentage were applied, the UK contribution would
be £6,437m.</p><p> </p>
