HL Deb 14 January 1991 vol 524 c74WA
Lord Mackie of Benshie

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How much money they contribute to the United Nations Population Fund; and why it is not more.

The Minister of State, Foreign and Commonwealth Office (The Earl of Caithness)

In addition to supporting other multilateral agencies we are contributing £6 million to UNFPA in the current financial year, an increase of £500,000 on the previous year. We intend further to increase the level and quality of all our population assistance and UNFPA will continue to be a major channel.
