Dr. Tonge

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what support the British Government provide to support air traffic control monitoring in the air space in Sub-Saharan Africa. [146833]

Mr. Hain

We do not at present provide support for air traffic control monitoring in the air space of Sub-Saharan Africa.

We have urged all members of the United Nations Security Council to consider what help we can provide in the region.
