§ Lord Marlesfordasked Her Majesty's Government:
What changes have been made in the 1995–96 cash limit for expenditure by the Overseas Development Administration.
§ Baroness Chalker of WallaseySubject to parliamentary approval of the necessary Supplementary Estimate, the cash limit on the External Assistance Vote (Class II, Vote 5) will be increased by £4,919,000 from £1,759,074,000 to £1,763,993,000. The increase is in respect of rollover of underspending against the 1994–95 External Assistance Vote. The increase will be offset by a claim on the Reserve and will not, therefore, add to the planned total of public expenditure.
