Ouster clauses that prevent judicial review have rarely been accepted by the courts, the opinion states. The International Development Act does include circumstances where the 0.7% is temporarily not met, for example because of adverse economic circumstances. Advice issued by the QC and peer Ken Macdonald said No 10 had acted outside the law when it abandoned its commitment to spend 0.7% of national income on aid. Much of the fund is dependent on aid spending. Doing so will reduce it by as much as 2.5bn this financial year, on top of cuts last year caused by the decline in the size of the economy.
