HC Deb 12 February 1968 vol 758 cc280-1W
Mr. Bishop

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department in view of the fact that the amount paid in public funds towards legal aid for divorce totalled £2,156.000 last year compared with the contribution of £42,000 to the Marriage and Family Guidance Council, if he will therefore substantially increase the latter figure.

Mr. Taverne:

The present annual exchequer contribution to the National Marriage Guidance Council was fixed in April 1966 for a period of three years. The question of any adjustment must await the review which will be made later this year to settle the grant for the following three years.
