Question 9: To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs his views on the proposal advanced by a number of aid agencies that, for the purposes of Ireland's overseas development aid to Third World countries, Ireland should adopt a different and more efficient model involving concentrating the development aid to an individual country, thereby ensuring greater accountability, transparency and control; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
