§ Mr. Kilroy-Silkasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he has 37W reached a decision on what services should be provided for information for homeless young people; and what alternatives he is considering to the suggested information booths at Euston and Victoria Coach Stations.
§ Mr. JohnWe have agreed to increase the grants already made by the Voluntary Services Unit to agencies caring for young people in the West End so that existing information services can be improved. Ways of improving the situation other than by the provision of information booths are being discussed with the voluntary agencies concerned, but no decisions have yet been reached. Possible alternatives include the provision of information leaflets at mainline stations, an additional telephone information service, or increased coverage of mainline stations by youth workers.
