§ Mr. ConnartyTo ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what measures the Government will take to encourage EU18W partners' support for the International Monetary Fund and Paris Club proposals to grant Nicaragua further debt relief.
§ Mr. NelsonThe Government will continue to press other Paris Club creditors at all international meetings to offer all eligible countries including Nicaragua debt relief consistent with the agreement reached by the Paris Club last December. We will also continue to press for action on multilateral debt, along the lines we proposed in Malta and Madrid, for those countries which will still have unsustainable debt liabilities to the multilateral institutions even after generous Trinidad terms debt relief.
