HC Deb 22 May 1991 vol 191 c479W
Mrs. Mahon

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if there are any plans to fund training for Ukranian doctors on cancer-related illnesses.

Mrs. Chalker

We have contributed, both bilaterally and multilaterally, to the international efforts to tackle the effects of the Chernobyl disaster, including by promoting specialist contacts with Ukranian doctors and scientists. We shall consider the possibility of further assistance in the light of the International Atomic Energy Agency report, due out on 21 May.
