HC Deb 16 January 1978 vol 942 c10W
Mr. Luce

asked the Minister of Overseas Development if she will state the amount and type of Government bilateral aid which has been provided to Ethiopia per annum over the last three years.

Mr. John Tomlinson

Gross official bilateral aid provided to Ethiopia in the calendar years between 1974 to 1976 was as follows:

£000's
1974 1975 1976
Capital Aid (including Commonwealth Development Corporation loans) 945 1,219 1,191
Technical co-operation 1,113 1,630 1,140
2,058 2,909 2,331

The final outturn figures for 1977 are not yet available, but the flow of aid was substantially less than in 1976. No new commitments of aid were entered into during 1977.
