HC Deb 28 March 1984 vol 57 cc192-3W
Mr. Terry Fields

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if any financial aid has been given to Chile since January 1983; what was the amount of aid; and for what purposes it was given.

Mr. Raison

No financial aid has been given to Chile since January 1983. Britain does, however, make funds available through the World University Service to assist Chilean refugees to receive training at British educational institutions. It is estimated that in 1983 some £439,000 was spent on this programme.
