HC Deb 20 January 2003 vol 398 c26W
Mr. Key

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development what discussions her Department has had with the Indian Government on food aid containing GM products; and if she will make a statement. [90418]

Clare Short

None. My Department has had no discussions with the Government of India regarding the provision of food aid containing GM products. Neither the UK Government nor the EC are currently providing food aid to India. The World Food Programme (WFP) does provide non-GM food aid to India, which it sources in-country.
