Vol. 502 No. 6
43 Mr. Callely asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs Ireland's total expenditure on overseas development aid for the past five years; the actual 1998 expenditure; the moneys allocated for official development assistance by the twenty one donor countries; the evaluation procedures in place to evaluate Ireland's contributions to date; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [8751/99]
As the following figures show, the allocations for Irish Official Development Assistance have been growing year-on-year for almost a decade and reflect the strong public support in Ireland for progammes to alleviate poverty in the least developed countries of the world.
