CONCERNING FOOD AID IN THE FORM OF SKIM­
MED MILK POWDER FOR ANGOLA .
       1980 PROGRAMME ,
 ---pagebreak---          The Council , acting on a proposal from the Commission , decided not
to fix the quantity of skimmed milk powder to be granted to Angola under
the 1980 food aid - programme , since this country had been unable to supply
particulars in support of its request for aid .
         The Angolan authorities have now sent to the Commission - not
without some difficulty , owing to the disorganized state of the country 's
administration - an application with a supporting dossier for food aid in
the form of 4 200 t of skimmed milk powder under the 1981 programme ; this
application will of course be examined in the general context of pro­
gramming for 19S1 .                                                      <
         Jhe Angolan authorities made an urgent request , however , for the
supply , as speedily as possible , on the basis of the dossier of a small
quantity of milk powder under the 1980 programme ; this would enable them to
make good the del ^ in transmitting the dossier , and would mean that the
people in Angola for whom the aid is intended , would not be penalized .
         This milk powder would be distributed free to 2 million people
( children , old people and pregnant women ), mainly from the central plain ; '
these people are now coming out of the bush where they had taken refuge and
their state of malnutrition is cause for alarm .
    i    Since Angola was a potential beneficiary as token entry under the
1980 programme , under which supplies are still available ( 6 365 t ), the
Commission proposes to the Council that immediate aid of 250 t of skimmed
milk powder , be delivered to the port of unloading , should be 'awarded to
Angola ; this operation will have no financial implications , since the
appropriation was fixed on an overall basis when the 1980 programme was drawn up
                                                                                4
