HC Deb 02 March 1981 vol 1000 c29W
Mr. Hooley

asked the Lord Privy Seal what contribution has been made by the United Kingdom towards United Nations relief operations in Karamoja, Uganda.

Mr. Luce

We have contributed to the regular programme of the United Nations organisations which are being used in the relief operations, but we have not made any contribution specifically related to their operations in Karamoja. During the current financial year we have contributed over £800,000 to British voluntary agencies for their work in Uganda including the recently announced contribution of up to £160,000 to help finance the transport of food into Karamoja.
