HC Deb 13 November 1963 vol 684 cc1-2W
Mr. J. Wells

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what assistance Her Majesty's Government gave to relieve the distress caused by Hurricane Flora in Cuba and Haiti.

Mr. R. A. Butler

Her Majesty's Government made gifts of medical supplies to the value of £3,500 to Cuba and £5,000 to Haiti. Parliament will in due course be asked to vote these amounts by means of a Supplementary Estimate. In the meantime advances have been obtained from the Civil Contingencies Fund.
