HC Deb 31 January 1978 vol 943 cc118-9W
Mr. Rose

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what consideration is given to the need for social work and home assistance to those undertaking courses in adult literacy schemes when deciding upon the amounts to be allocated for these projects.

Mr. Oakes

These wider questions are for consideration by each local authority and voluntary literacy organisation when determining the courses they provide and advising the students. The contribution from Government funds currently disbursed through the Adult Literacy Resource Agency is specifically for the adult literacy provision.
