Britain still supports Uganda
The headline and story in the Sunday Monitor of April 18 (Britain suspends aid to Uganda) are misleading.
The UK continues to have an active and substantial programme of development assistance to Uganda and a strong development partnership with Uganda's government.
In the year to end March 2004 the UK provided a total of �55 million (Ush. 190 billion approx.), through its development programme in Uganda.
This figure includes �30 million of direct support for the Government's budget. The �10 million of direct budget support that the UK has been unable to disburse ahead of discussions on the implementation of the Defence Review and defence expenditure in 2004/05 is only a part of this overall programme.
