HC Deb 20 March 1979 vol 964 c520W
Mr. Robert Hughes

asked the Minister of Overseas Development what further plans Her Majesty's Government have to support the aim of International Anti-apartheid Year.

Mrs. Hart

I have decided to make a contribution of £50,000 to the United Nations Trust Fund for South Africa, which provides legal and humanitarian assistance to the opponents of apartheid in Southern Africa and their families. Provision will be sought in the 1979–80 summer Supplementary Estimates. This is in addition to the £11,400 which the Government have given to the work of the United Kingdom Co-ordinating Committee for International Anti-apartheid Year and to the £100,000 which is the United Kingdom contribution to the United Nations education and training programme for Southern Africa in 1979.
