HC Deb 05 February 1962 vol 653 cc13-4W
54. Mr. P. Noel-Baker

asked the Lord Privy Seal what was the British contribution to the United Nations budget for 1961, to the special United Nations Congo fund, and to the United Nations Special Agencies.

Mr. Godber

In 1961 Her Majesty's Government's mandatory contribution to the United Nations Budget was £5.5 million, including the special accounts for operations in the Middle East and the Congo, and £2 million to the budgets of the Specialised Agencies. No contribution during this period was made to the Voluntary United Nations Fund for the Congo.
