HC Deb 30 June 1981 vol 7 c356W
Mr. Greenway

asked the Secretary of State for Employment, pursuant to the reply to the hon. Member for Ealing, North on 8 June, Official Report, c. 17, whether the Manpower Services Commission monitors the schemes operated by the Ealing Community Relations Council to ensure that its money is being properly spent and that value is being obtained for it.

Mr. Peter Morrison

Schemes under the Manpower Services Commission's programme are subject to regular monitoring visits. Schemes sponsored by the Ealing Community Relations Council have been visited on 10 occasions since 1 January 1981.

I am assured by the commission that public funds made available to the Ealing Community Relations Council are being spent within the terms of reference for which the grants are made.
