§ Mr. ShersbyTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will publish details of the funding provided to victim support in each year since public funds were provided for this purpose together with any information he has concerning the number of persons employed(a) full time and (b) part time by this organisation for each year.
§ Mr. JackThe table shows Home Office grant to victim support since funding began in 1979. Many local schemes also receive support from their local authority, but details are not recorded centrally. The figures for staff numbers relate to posts, not persons, and it is not now possible to distinguish between full and part-time employees for earlier years.
§ Mr. Peter LloydSince the sites are to be disposed of we have no plans to permit their use for other purposes.
