Lord Judd

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they have received any reports of moves by the Government of France to block the transmission of aid from the European Union to Rwanda; and, if so, what sums are involved and what is their response.

Baroness Chalker of Wallasey

The EU Development Council agreed unanimously, on 25 November, to an action programme costing 67 mecu (£53 million), which focuses on immediate rehabilitation needs in Rwanda.
