HC Deb 17 February 1964 vol 689 c143W
62. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Minister of Health what grants have been made to organisations to publicise the personal and social ill-effects of the excessive consumption of alcohol; and in what other manner public funds have been used for such purposes.

Mr. Braine

No grants are made by the Ministry specifically for this purpose. Local health and education authorities include this subject, as appropriate, in their health education programmes, the cost of which is relevant expenditure for general grant. They also co-operate with the voluntary organisations concerned.
