§ 2. Sir W. Teelingasked the Minister of Overseas Development to what extent, in granting aid to eligible countries, she takes into account the presence of British-born elderly people residing there, who may be suffering financial hardship, and the benefits which they may receive as a result of such grants.
§ Mrs. CastleOur aid is intended to raise the standard of living of the countries in question through economic development. We do not normally give aid directed to specific sections of the community.
