HC Deb 02 March 1971 vol 812 c400W
Mr. Cordle

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will give details of the division between countries of the total Government expenditure on overseas aid in each of the years 1969–70 to 1974–75, inclusive, as shown in Table 2.3 of Command Paper No. 4578, Public Expenditure 1969–70 to 1974–75.

Mr. Kershaw

No. It would not be practicable to give precise forecasts of expenditure in individual recipient countries. Parliament is informed when individual agreements have been negotiated.
