HC Deb 01 March 1922 vol 151 cc423-4W
Captain ELLIOT

asked the Minister of Health what grants are at present being paid to the National Council for Combating Venereal Disease direct; and, through the local authorities, as the 75 per cent, proportion of sums expended by them?

Sir A. MOND

The grants paid up to date to the National Council for Combating Venereal Disease during the current financial year amount to £9,500. As regards the second part of the question, I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the concluding part of the reply given to him on the 23rd March last, in which it was stated that no grants are made direct by local authorities to the National Council.
