HL Deb 08 June 1999 vol 601 c147WA
The Earl of Sandwich

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they have seen the recent Save the Children report on sanctions and the United Nations food for oil programme in Iraq; and, if so, whether they agree that there is inadequate impact assessment and monitoring under this programme. [HL2756]

Baroness Amos

We have seen the Save the Children report and have also seen the UN report. We are pressing the UN to improve their monitoring and impact assessment of the oil for food programme.
