HC Deb 27 April 1978 vol 948 c693W
41. Mr. Hooley

asked the Minister of Overseas Development what progress is being made with retrospective aid adjustment to relieve the debts of developing countries in accordance with the decisions taken by the United Nations Trade and Development Board in Geneva in March 1978.

Mrs. Hart

As I told the House on 20th March—[Vol. 946, cc. 970–3]—we are now urgently examining the scope and modalities of any scheme we might adopt. I hope to be able to report further to the House in a few weeks' time.
