HC Deb 13 June 1973 vol 857 c316W
28. Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will take part in joint action with the United Nations specialised agencies to combat the effect of drought in India's western states.

Mr. Wood

I have already announced a British contribution to the expanded UNICEF programme for drilling wells. I would be prepared to consider contributing to any similar projects by specialised agencies of the United Nations, which had the support of the Government of India.
