§ Mr. Baldry[holding reply 22 February 1995]: This was the second in a series of meetings expected to continue throughout 1995. Donors discussed IDA's approach to development effectiveness, and the challenges faced by both donors and recipients in the poorest countries, particularly those in sub-Saharan Africa. There was also a preliminary exchange of views on such issues as regional allocations, support for structural adjustment and multilateral debt.
