Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 May 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Darfur Crisis.


Darfur Crisis

Given that the World Food Programme has received only 32 per cent. of the funds that it needs in 2006 to sustain its operations and that there is an estimated funding gap of $443 million, does the hon. Lady agree that it would be reasonable to put every member of the United Nations that signed up to the idea of the peace agreement on the spot by asking them exactly what they will contribute in pounds, shillings and pence that they have not previously contributed? It logically follows that that is the only way we can plug the gap.
