HC Deb 09 July 1969 vol 786 c273W
Mr. Wall

asked the Minister of Overseas Development what information he has from international sources as to the annual amount of official overseas aid expressed per capita of the donor population, given by the United Kingdom, the United States of America, France, West Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics for 1966, 1967 and 1968.

Mr. Prentice

The information available from international sources on net official financial resource flows to developing countries and on the populations of the donor countries concerned provides the following rates for 1965–67. The information for 1968 has not yet been received and that for resource flows for the U.S.S.R. for any year is not published. I am informed that unofficial estimates for the U.S.S.R. suggest a rate of £0.2 in 1966 and 1967.
