HC Deb 27 November 1981 vol 13 c509W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will increase the departmental grant to the charity MIND to enable that organisation to overcome the present financial difficulties.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

We have already indicated to the charity in response to an enquiry that, although supplementary grants in the course of a year can be given only very exceptionally, if it submits a detailed case it will be considered on its merits.
