To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what financial assistance Her Majesty's Government have provided to the Government of El Salvador between 1984 and 1990.

Between 1984 and 1988 we provided bilaterally £1 million of financial aid, all for disaster relief; and £113,000 of technical co-operation. The provisional figures for 1989 are £140,000 (disaster relief) and £4,000 (technical co-operation). European Community aid commitments in 1984–89 totalled 45·79 million ecu; expenditure in 1984–88 was 8·3 million ecu; the United Kingdom share of this aid is about 20 per cent.
