HC Deb 02 December 1974 vol 882 cc390-1W
Mrs. Renée Short

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what financial and other contribution he intends to make to support International Women's Year.

Mr. Crosland

My right hon. Friend the Minister of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs indicated on 20th and 27th November that the Government have invited the Women's National Commission to co-ordinate the United Kingdom's activities to mark International Women's Year and have agreed to make a grant of £10,000 to the commission for this purpose. I have no plans for the provision of separate financial assistance.
