Select Committee on International Development Minutes of Evidence


Examination of Witnesses (Question 120)

MR IVAN LEWIS MP, MR MALCOLM MCNEIL AND MR ALASTAIR ROBB

30 OCTOBER 2008

  Q120  John Battle: But we do not have many middle-income countries.

  Mr McNeil: Not many, no, that is true.

  Chairman: Thank you very much. Can I repeat specifically the point about the AIDS African countries and the social protection criteria? If you could provide us with a quick note this week it would be helpful to our report but also to reflection on you.2 I think that is a bit of a lacuna for us but otherwise thank you very much for coming in. It has been very worthwhile. The Committee is obviously very pleased that the Government has these very big ambitions and commitments but I hope that the interaction between us and yourselves is constructive and trying to focus on how we get the delivery we all want. I trust our report will make some useful additional comments. Thanks very much.
