Proceeding contribution from Sally Keeble (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 26 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Debt Relief (Developing Countries) Bill.
Debt Relief (Developing Countries) Bill
The hon. Gentleman is right about the operation of the funds. That is why my private Member's Bill dealt with issues of disclosure and transparency. I congratulate the media: television and some national newspapers have highlighted such activities and brought them much more into the public gaze. They have done us all a great service and presented us with a challenge by saying, "These are the facts. What are you as a Parliament and as a Government going to do about them?"
