§ Mrs. ChalkerSubject to parliamentary approval of the necessary supplementary estimate, the cash limit on the646W overseas aid vote (class II, vote 5) will be increased by £1,444,000 from £1,477,509,000 to £1,478,953,000. The increase reflects adjustments to the aid programme including a contribution from the Scottish Office to the costs of the St. Helena ship.
