HC Deb 30 July 1974 vol 878 c177W
Mr. Stephen Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if she will consider giving extra financial assistance to the Wessex Children's Regional Planning Committee to enable it to fulfil its obligations under the Children and Young Persons Act 1969.

Dr. Owen

The Department is preparing, on the basis of local authority proposals for capital projects, lists of projects on which preliminary work may usefully proceed with a view to their receiving final approval in 1975–6, if resources permit, or as soon as possible thereafter. The lists will be issued to local authorities as soon as possible.
