§ Mr. BattleTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list all disabled living centres in Scotland; and how much his Department contributes to each of their budgets. [27767]
§ Lord James Douglas-HamiltonThere are six disabled living centres in Scotland, situated in Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Grangemouth, Inverness, Paisley and St. Andrews. As DLCs are locally based, they are eligible to seek financial support from local statutory agencies. I understand that all six DLCs are funded by either local authorities or health boards.
