HC Deb 25 November 1994 vol 250 c425W
Mr. Worthington

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement about money being made available for educational purposes in Kenya by the Overseas Development Administration; and if he will indicate which projects are aimed at primary, secondary and higher education and the amounts of money allocated to each sector.

Mr. Baldry

Apart from a small amount of continuing assistance to the Kenya and Mombasa polytechnics, and some training, ODA's commitment to higher education in Kenya will end in 1994–95. There is no allocation for secondary education. The focus of our programme now is to strengthen primary education.

Total disbursements this financial year in the education sector are expected to be some £3 million, of which nearly two thirds will be for primary education.

Forward to
