76. Mr. Galloway

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what assistance he may be able to give to the Government of Pakistan to help resolve their economic difficulties; and if he will make a statement.

We welcome Pakistan's return to the Commonwealth. We have an effective and growing bilateral aid programme for Pakistan. Last year we spent £23 million. During Prime Minister Bhutto's visit here in July, a memorandum of understanding was signed covering grants of £25 million for social sector projects.
