Sir Alastair Goodlad

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what assistance her Department is currently giving to Tibet. [39963]

Mr. Foulkes

We are currently contributing some £680,000 to five projects which are being implemented by non-governmental organisations. These projects—in the fields of education, income generation and environmental health—are helping to address the needs of rural and urban communities within Tibet and of Tibetan refugees in India.
