§ Mr. RaisonHer Majesty's Government have provided bilateral aid of £1.4 million in collaboration with the International Development Association to assist the Bangladesh Government's population control programme. We are not aware of a national population control board in Bangladesh. There is, however, a National Council for Population Control; but this has not received assistance under the British aid programme.
