§ Mr. Ieuan Wyn JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales how much money has been invested in Project 2000 in Wales; how many students there are on the courses; how the courses are funded; and in which colleges they are held.
§ Mr. Wyn RobertsThe sum of £696,000 has been made available for implementation of Project 2000 in Wales in 1989–90. This includes £420,000 to prepare for implementation of which £365,000 has been allocated to DHAs to fund ad hoc schemes to launch Project 2000; and £276,000 allocated to the Welsh National Board for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting for extra teachers and certain development and planning costs.
Information is not held as to the resources invested by individual DHAs. It is the intention that the new courses will be introduced from autumn 1991.
