HC Deb 08 February 1978 vol 943 cc565-6W
Mr. Robin F. Cook

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a statement on the withdrawal of funds through the Voluntary Services Unit to finance English language classes for Chilean refugees.

Mr. John

While the grant from the Voluntary Services Unit has not been raised to the level requested, funds for the financing of English classes for Chilean refugees have not been withdrawn. An allowance for this purpose continues to be available within the total grant.
