Argentina
International Development
Derek Twigg (Halton, Labour)
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development on what dates he expects (a) submissions to be made on International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) projects in Argentina, (b) votes on projects involving Argentina to take place in the IBRD and (c) meetings of the IBRD board to be held under both the simplified and non-simplified procedures on such projects.
Alan Duncan (Minister of State, International Development; Rutland and Melton, Conservative)
DFID does not maintain an aid programme to Argentina and no UK aid is spent providing loans to Argentina at the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD).
I can confirm that at present there are no items relating to Argentina on the current schedule of the World Bank board.
