HC Deb 29 July 1982 vol 28 c647W
Viscount Cranborne

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what financial provision he will be making available to meet the cost of rehabilitation work on the Falkland Islands.

Mr. Neil Marten

I intend to make up to £10 million available. Parliamentary approval for this new service will be sought in a Supplementary Estimate for the Overseas Aid Vote. Pending that approval the necessary expenditure will be met by repayable advances from the Contingencies Fund.
