asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs when he last met officials of the United Nations' Children's Fund; what subjects were discussed; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Chris Patten

My right hon. Friend the then Minister for Overseas Development met the executive director of UNICEF last March and discussed emergency programmes in Africa and the global immunisation campaign. I shall be meeting the deputy executive director, Dr. Richard Jolly, this Wednesday. I agreed on 8 October to contribute £1 million to support programmes in Mozambique and the immunisation programme in Botswana and Lesotho.
