§ Mr. WoodThe Burundi Ambassador presented in June a list of requests for relief aid, including medicines, following the inter-tribal warfare in Burundi. This list was also presented to a large number of other Governments. There has been no other request for medical assistance and Her Majesty's Government have not been able to give aid to Burundi because we are not satisfied that it would be used for the benefit of those who suffered in the recent disturbances.
