HC Deb 29 March 1995 vol 257 c692W
Mrs. Clwyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will list the projects on which the United Kingdom's aid contribution to Iraq has been spent since 1991. [16632]

Mr. Baldry

[holding answer 27 March 1995]: A list providing details of United Kingdom emergency aid contributions totalling £57.2 million since 1991 has been placed in the Libraries of both Houses. Most of this aid went to Kurdish areas of northern Iraq, and refugees in neighbouring countries. Smaller amounts have been used for medical supplies and water projects in central and southern Iraq. In addition, our share of EC spending has totalled £13.3 million over the same period.
