HC Deb 28 October 1982 vol 29 c473W
Mrs. Shirley Williams

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether he supported the recent proposals made by the European Commission for an economic aid programme for Central America.

Mr. Onslow

The Commission's proposals for a special aid programme for Central America stem from the conclusions of the March European Council. We are anxious to see a programme agreed, but final decisions have still to be taken on the size of the programme and on which Central American countries should benefit.
