§ Mr. Ieuan Wyn JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make it his policy to ensure that any emergency aid granted to developing countries by the Overseas Development Administration is paid over and above normal development aid commitments made by the Overseas Development Administration.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydThe aid programme to developing countries is intended to provide both long-term development assistance and emergency humanitarian aid. The programme is managed to ensure that the emergency aid we provide is not at the expense of long-term development aid commitments.
