§ Mr. ElletsonTo ask the Prime Minister what is the total cost of Britain's contribution to the peace process in the former Yugoslavia.
§ The Prime MinisterThe costs cannot be precisely calculated but are considerable in the military, political and humanitarian fields. Up to 31 March 1993, the United Kingdom's contribution to UNPROFOR operations in Croatia and Bosnia has amounted to £93,835,679. Further expenditure of £2,576,831 has been incurred as a result of the airlift of humanitarian supplies to Sarajevo. We expect to recover a proportion of these costs from the United Nations in due course.
