HC Deb 06 November 1989 vol 159 c435W
51. Mr. Amos

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what safeguards exist to monitor the allocation of overseas Government funding to organisations in South Africa and to South African organisations not currently located within South Africa; and if he will make a statement.

Mrs. Chalker

Staff of our Embassy in Pretoria and of the British Council make frequent visits to the organisations to which we provide aid and the projects we help finance. Officials from my Department visit South Africa regularly to oversee our aid programme and to ensure that it is being well spent. We do not finance any South African organisations outside South Africa.
