§ 38. Mr. James Johnsonasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement upon British aid to Sudan, Somalia and the Yemen Arab Republic, respectively, in 1972; and whether he is contemplating any changes in 1973.
§ Mr. WoodWe expect, in this financial year, to spend £1.25 million in the Sudan; £180,000 in Somalia; and £100,000 in the Yemen Arab Republic. Next year I expect to put more emphasis on rehabilitation in the Southern Sudan, to expand the programme in the Yemen and to continue that in Somalia on present lines.
