Proceeding contribution from Baroness Verma (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 1 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on International Aid Reviews: Conclusions.

International Aid Reviews: Conclusions

I thank the noble Lord for all his comments. In fact there was very little that I could disagree with. As he is very well aware through his own experience, building good partnerships is very important. He is absolutely right; we will be working with China and Brazil and, hopefully not too far into the future, with India, too. We are having very constructive conversations with our other partners who provide donor aid. Many have shown a very keen interest in how we have gone through our review process and are looking very closely at what we have managed to do to ensure that their programmes are also going to be targeted and focused so that we all work toward the same end, which is getting people out of poverty.
