HC Deb 06 May 1969 vol 783 c70W
Dr. Winstanley

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how much was spent by his Department on health education during the last full year before responsibility for this work was transferred to the Health Education Council.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

In the year ended 31st March, 1968 the Home Office made a contribution of £10,000 to the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents for its home safety work and spent an additional £1,200 on home safety publicity of its own. None of the Home Office's responsibilities in this field has been transferred to the Health Education Council.
