Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will list the grants made available by his Department to the National Youth Bureau and other leading organisations concerned with youth during the most recent year for which figures are available.

Mr. Macfarlane

Grants paid to national youth organisations during the financial year 1978–79 were as listed below. The figures include grant towards headquarters expenditure; grant to support development, experiment and research; and, in a few cases, grant towards capital projects of national or regional significance.
