Proceeding contribution from Andrew Mitchell (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 May 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Burma.


Burma

My aim in intervening was precisely the same as that of the Secretary of State. When I was in Rangoon last year, I saw the work done on the ground by Save the Children, and the excellent work being done in Burma by Andrew Kirkwood. Everyone who gives money to the DEC appeal can be absolutely confident that they have a really first-class NGO in Save the Children. Other NGOs mentioned in this debate are also doing very valuable work on the ground.
