HC Deb 30 October 1995 vol 265 c18W
Dr. Goodson-Wickes

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what recent progress he has to report on programmes to eradicate the production of illegal drugs. [37864]

Mr. Hanley

ODA' s current largest involvement in such programmes is in Pakistan where there has recently been encouraging progress. ODA approved a further £3.6 million in January this year for phase 2 of the United Nations drugs control programme alternative development project in the Dir district to cover the period 1995 to 1998. Opportunities to identify similar activities in other developing countries remain under constant review.
