HC Deb 28 February 1978 vol 945 cc171-2W
Mr. Newton

asked the Secretary of State for Employment how many applications for assistance from the EEC Social Fund are currently being processed by his Department; and what value in £ sterling they represent.

Mr. John Grant

70 applications so far submitted from the United Kingdom in respect of eligible activities in 1978 and the two subsequent years have yet to be decided upon by the EEC Commission. Their total value is £156.7 mil- lion. As the year progresses, further applications are likely to be made.
