HC Deb 03 November 1975 vol 899 cc44-5W
Mrs. Bain

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is the projected expenditure for the coming financial year on grants for the Central Council for Education and Training in Social Work.

Mr. Meacher

No grants are made to the Central Council for Education and Training in Social Work; my right hon. Friends the Secretaries of State for Social Services, for Scotland and for Wales, pay the sums necessary to defray the council's approved expenditure in so far as it is not met by income or by moneys provided in respect of Northern Ireland. The councils' estimates for 1976–77 have not yet been approved, but projected expenditure for the coming financial year at 1975 Survey prices is £1.278 million.
