HC Deb 25 April 1995 vol 258 c408W
Mr. Worthington

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he has a vote in the election for the presidency of the African development bank; and which candidate he supports. [19916]

Mr. Baldry

I have been asked to reply.

The president of the African development bank is elected by a majority of the total voting power of its members, including a majority of the voting power of regional members. We are giving careful consideration to the five candidates nominated for the post.
