HC Deb 09 July 1990 vol 176 c32W
Mr. Fearn

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he is considering making additional funds available for refugees and displaced people in Mozambique.

Mrs. Chalker

I announced in April a grant of £3.5 million and 10,000 tonnes of food aid for displaced persons within Mozambique. The £3.5 million will be used for basic relief supplies, seeds and food.

I also announced in June a further £3 million, in response to an appeal by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, for Mozambican refugees in Malawi and other neighbouring countries. I will continue to monitor the situation in Mozambique very carefully.
