Image Abbey aid.JPG thumb 300px The Abbey Aid 2006 Logo Abbey Aid was an open air pop concert held at the Abbey Stadium , Cambridge , England in May 2006. It was the first of its kind in Cambridge , targeting pop fans as opposed to the more established Cambridge Folk Festival which targets a substantially different audience. It was a huge flop. FORCETOC History As the name suggests, Abbey Aid was originally designed as a fundraising project to help see Cambridge United F.C. through a tough economic situation that had existed for many years, but came to a head in the summer of 2005, when debts escalated to an unmanageable level forcing the Club into Administration insolvency administration . To help the club through what looked like being a long summer as source of income virtually dry up during this non playing time for most Football soccer football clubs , the club started to arrange a concert to be held at its stadium over the first weekend in July 2005. The original nature of this concert was that it would be three sessions long, starting on the Friday night with a Party on the Pitch followed by a series of local bands performing on the Saturday afternoon and culminating in a pop concert on Saturday evening. Due to the club s precarious financial state preparations for the concert progressed at an extraordinarily fast rate considering the total lack of experience of the organisers in this field logistics were arranged, local acts booked and a headline act found in the shape of pop artist Natasha Bedingfield . However, just when the concerts seemed to be heading in the right direction, the unlikely stumbling block of world poverty halted progress. With the G8 summit at Gleneagles scheduled for the week following the concerts, the nation s media had focussed on the growing ... Aid.

Untied Aid is assistance given to developing countries which can be used to purchase goods and services in virtually all countries. ref Untied aid, u OECD Glossary of Statistical Terms u , OECD.org, 18 July 2007 http stats.oecd.org glossary detail.asp?ID 2817 . ref It is contrasted with tied aid which stipulates that goods and services bought with it can only be purchased from the donor country or from a limited selection of countries. ref Tied aid credits, OECD Glossary of Statistical Terms u , OECD.org, 18 July 2007 http stats.oecd.org glossary detail.asp?ID 3089 . ref Reasons for using untied aid One of the main arguments in favour of untied aid is that tied aid can create important distortions in the market by limiting the number of countries where the recipient can make purchases. These limitations impede the recipient country s ability to find the most cost effective way to spend the aid they receive. It is estimated that goods and services purchased with tied aid cost 15 30 more than comparable goods and services acquired with untied aid. Furthermore, tied aid often favours capital intensive goods and advising primarily in the donor country s area of expertise. This may lead recipient countries to make purchases which are inappropriate for realising their development goals. In addition, the administration of tied aid requires larger bureaucracies in both the donor and recipient countries. Untying aid would presumably give recipient countries greater freedom to choose how they spend their resources, focusing on the goods and services they need most, and allow them to purchase from the most cost effective sources. Untying aid would allow it to be more efficiently employed, effectively increasing its value. ref Untying aid to the Least Developed Countries, OECD Policy ... . ref See also Tied aid br Aid References references External links http www.OECD.org dac untiedaid OECD Untied Aid Category Development Category Aid ... more details
