HC Deb 03 August 1966 vol 733 c142W
Sir Knox Cunningham

asked the Minister of Education and Science if he will state what effect the proposed reduction in public expenditure will have on the grants made by his Department to the Youth Service and to sport and recreation respectively; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Crosland

Grants made for the current year are not affected by the measures announced by the Prime Minister on 20th July. The level of future grants must depend on the general economic situation.
