World Bank Proposals On Expanding Access To Bank Information

EDM number 2254 in 1992-93, proposed by John Denham on 02/07/1993.

That this House notes the influential role played by the World Bank in funding development projects and structural adjustment in developing countries; notes also that the World Bank has been the subject of intense criticism from environmental and development organisations in developed and developing countries; believes that the quality of World Bank lending would be greatly improved if its operations were conducted in less secrecy; welcomes, therefore, the proposals of the World Bank management in the draft directive, Expanding Access to Bank Information and its discussion by the Board on 7th July; and urges Her Majesty's Government to support this directive.

This motion has been signed by a total of 55 MPs.
