Mrs. Clwyd: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if it is his Department's policy to provide aid toIndonesia for projects of general application which treat East Timor as a province of Indonesia. [21405]Dr. Liam Fox: While it is not our policy to provide aid on a Government-to-Government basis for projects in East Timor, we do notconsider it necessary, or indeed practicable in most cases, to exclude East Timor from projects of general application withinIndonesia. This does not imply support for or recognition of Indonesian sovereignty over the territory.
