HC Deb 11 December 1969 vol 793 c151W
41. Mr. Tilney

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what grants are given annually by his Department for the encouragement of swimming; and what approximate percentage of children in primary schools are able to swim.

Miss Bacon

Such grants are now a matter for my right hon. Friend the Minister of Housing and Local Government. A percentage cannot be estimated from the limited figures available.
