HC Deb 14 May 1986 vol 97 c452W
Mr. Watts

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what plans Her Majesty's Government have to provide additional resources to the ASIAN Development Bank.

Mr. Raison

Negotiations were concluded in Manila on 28–29 April for a fourth replenishment of the Bank's concessional Asian Development Fund. The replenishment will total United States $3.6 billion, for commitment during the four years 1987 to 1990. Subject to parliamentary approval in due course, Britain's share of the total will be £95.08 million.
