Proceeding contribution from Richard Burden (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Aid Reviews.


Aid Reviews

The Secretary of State suggests terminating the aid programme in Vietnam. I suggest that he looks again at the report of the Select Committee after its visit to the country in 2007. It recognised that although the aid relationship needed to change, the graduation of Vietnam to middle-income status was fragile, that many good ideas that could be used elsewhere in the world were being tested, and that the aid relationship, although changing, should continue. Will the right hon. Gentleman look at that again?
