Proceeding contribution from Edward Leigh (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on Somalia.
Somalia
My hon. Friend the Member for Cheltenham (Martin Horwood) asked me what the source was for the statistic that 96% of direct bilateral aid to the TFG was going astray. I am sorry that I did not have that information with me then, but it is important to put it on the record. It comes from the investigative report for 2009-10 by the TFG's public finance management unit. The TFG's own internal report shows that 96% of the bilateral aid going to them goes into the hands of corrupt officials.
