Funding for residential establishments is provided directly and indirectly by the Scottish Office from a number of sources. Most funding for residential establishments is provided locally by local authorities and health boards either from funds specifically allocated for drug misuse or from their general allocations. Details of funding from all these sources could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
It is possible to provide information on the limited funding which is available from the Scottish Office for alcohol and drugs projects, including residential facilities, undertaken by voluntary sector organisations working in the social care field under section 10(1) of The Social Work (Scotland) Act 1968 and of the funding which is available under the urban programme. Details of the residential establishments benefiting under these schemes are set out in the tables.
