HC Deb 09 November 1971 vol 825 c143W
Mr. Gwynoro Jones

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will state the amount of grant provided for the Home Safety Council in Great Britain; and how much is provided for the Council to carry on its work in Scotland and Wales.

Mr. Sharples

The grant towards the cost of the home safety activities undertaken by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents is at present £13,000 a year. None of this grant is earmarked for any particular country. The Scottish Home and Health Department makes a separate annual grant of £3,000 towards the cost of providing a home safety organiser of the society in Scotland.
