HC Deb 14 November 1978 vol 958 cc144-5W
Mrs. Chalker

asked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection what commitment he is planning for the future funding of the Citizens Advice Bureau service beyond 1981.

Mr. John Fraser

The extent and form of our assistance to the citizens advice bureau service after March 1981 will depend upon the outcome of a review of advice services which we intend to complete before that date. This review will need to take particular account of the findings of the Royal Commission on legal services in England and Wales, and proposals for the citizens advice bureaux services future development which the National Association of Citizens Advice Bureaux is at present preparing.
