§ Mr. DalyellTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what help the United Kingdom gives to the Belize Government for rain forest work.
§ Mr. Lennox-Boyd[holding answer 13 May 1993]: A five-year forest planning and management project began in May 1992. The total cost to ODA is £3.73 million. In addition, we have been funding since January 1991 a three-year appointment of a tropical forestry action plan co-ordinator; and have supported a number of land use planning activities which have a direct bearing on the management of the Belize rain forest.
