Humanitarian Aid

EDM number 621 in 1992-93, proposed by Jim Lester on 21/10/1992.

That this House expresses its deep concern at the humanitarian crises in Somalia, southern Africa and in former Yugoslavia; acknowledges its commitment to an aid budget that allows the United Kingdom to respond to urgent humanitarian need and to support sustainable development; recognises the quality of United Kingdom aid and that without long term solutions to poverty further crises are inevitable; acknowledges the difficulties facing the Government during the current public expenditure round but is convinced that cuts in the aid budget would be at the expense of some of the world's poorest people; and therefore urges the Government to maintain its commitment to the growth of the aid budget announced last year.

This motion has been signed by a total of 161 MPs, 3 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
