HC Deb 10 April 2002 vol 383 c262W
Dr. Tonge

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what progress was made on post-conflict assistance accounts for countries which have not reached decision point under the HIPC Initiative at the Financing for Development in Mexico. [46658]

Mr. Boateng

There was no formal discussion on the Post Conflict Assistance Account at the UN Financing for Development Conference. However, the Post Conflict Assistance Account has been successfully established and has already provided assistance for six countries. The Department for International Development was the first contributor to this account, and the Government will continue to press for other countries to contribute.
