HL Deb 14 April 1999 vol 599 c124WA
The Earl of Sandwich

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they have held discussions with non-governmental organisations about the security and protection of aid workers in Kosovo. [HL1894]

Baroness Amos

Regular discussions have taken place with NGOs and others over the last year on all aspects of humanitarian assistance in Kosovo, including security. We are not aware of any aid activity by British-based NGOs in Kosovo at present, and we believe it would be highly inadvisable for aid workers to return to Kosovo while the current security situation persists.
