Subject: EU aid to Cyprus

How much money has come in the last ten years to Cyprus? How much was spent on the Greek side and how much on the Turkish side - and on what projects?

Answer given by Mr Van den Broek on behalf of the Commission (17 February 1998)

The following appropriations were allocated to Cyprus under the third and fourth financial protocols:

Third protocol (1990 - 1994)

European Investment Bank (EIB) loans from own resources: ECU 44 million EC grants: ECU 13 million EC venture capital: ECU 5 million

Fourth protocol (1995 - 1998)

The appropriations under the third protocol have been fully utilised. Execution of appropriations under the fourth protocol is in hand. The financial protocols were concluded with the Cypriot Government for the benefit of the entire island.
