HC Deb 14 July 1999 vol 335 c218W
10. Mr. Randall

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what humanitarian aid her Department is providing for Serbia. [89761]

Mr. Foulkes

We provide humanitarian assistance wherever it is needed, but it is essential to verify need and proper use. Applying these principles in Serbia is difficult in view of limited independent access. We shall consider requests for assistance through international humanitarian organisations. ECHO have allocated a total of 26.5 million euros for humanitarian assistance to Serbia, of which the UK share will be some £2.5 million.
