They would be useful. I echo Deputy Humphreys’ call. For what it is worth, I believe the international development funds for the European Union are incredibly important. Europe leads the way in that regard. My understanding is there is pressure on the funds. I lend my unambiguous and full support to the fund not being reduced and to the European Union meeting its 0.7% targets for international development.
