Mr. Kirkwood
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what representations he has had urging support for SADCC's programme of action; and what response he has given.
Mrs. Chalker
I have received a number of representations. The Government's support for SADCC's programme of action is substantial; our total commitments to date for SADCC's regional programmes and projects amount to £70 million. British aid for SADCC member states since 1980 amounts to well over £1,000 million.
