ST ANDREWS, Scotland, Nov 7 (Reuters) - G20 finance ministers and central bankers pledged on Saturday to maintain emergency support for their economies until recovery was assured, according to a draft of their end of meeting communique.

"Economic and financial conditions have improved following our coordinated response to the crisis. However, recovery is uneven and remains dependent on policy support," the draft, read out to Reuters by a delegation source, said.

"To restore the global economy and financial system to health, we agreed to maintain support for the recovery until it is assured," the statement said.
