HL Deb 25 November 1993 vol 550 c11WA
Lord Braine of Wheatley

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will make funding to IPPF and UNFPA dependent on those agencies not supporting or participating in the management of a programme of coercive abortion or involuntary sterilisation.

Baroness Chalker of Wallasey

Both UNFPA and IPPF promote high quality family planning services based on free choice by couples and individuals. They have repeatedly made clear their opposition to coercive practices. It is on this basis that we provide them with funds.
