The Swedish Government will make available 50 million kronor to the Inter-Governmental Committee on Refugees for use in rehabil- itation and resettlement of non-repatriable victims of German action. You may rest assured that my Government, while reserving its decision as to the manner in which the funds will be made available, will use its best efforts to make the funds available as soon as possible and in such manner as to best carry out the aims of the Committee. 2. The Swedish Government will further make available 75 million kronor, which it will allocate among countries party to the Paris Agreement on Reparations. Decisions upon allocation will be made after exchanges of views with the Allies acting on behalf of those countries and with favorable consideration of their views. There will also be consultation between the Swedish Government and each of the countries which may receive credit for any part of this sum as regards the extent to which or manner in which benefit from its share shall be applied either in the remission, reduc- tion or extension of any existing or future credit with Sweden of each such country, or otherwise, as may be agreed between each such country and Sweden.
