Proceeding contribution from Jane Kennedy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 June 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on G8 Summit.


G8 Summit

May I invite my right hon. Friend to say a little more about what he anticipates the benefits will be of expanding education in Africa in the way that he announced today? In my constituency, refugees who have rightly been granted asylum from such countries as the Congo, Cameroon and increasingly, sadly, Somalia, tell me when I meet them how grateful they are to Britain and to my right hon. Friend’s leadership for changing attitudes to Africa within the G8. He can rightly be proud of that change.
