HC Deb 29 November 1989 vol 162 c334W
Sir John Stanley

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what is his policy on the use of the joint funding scheme for funding development projects being carried out by British non-governmental organisations in Burundi.

Mr. Waldegrave

There is no predetermined geographical allocation of resources under the joint funding scheme. Non-governmental organisations are free to submit long-term development project proposals for most developing countries, including Burundi. Decisions on funding rest on the quality and relevance of those project proposals.
