HC Deb 09 December 1982 vol 33 cc584-9W
Mr. Hannam

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will publish details of grants to voluntary organisations from his Department during the financial year 1982–83 showing the amount awarded to each organisation.

Mr. Newton

[pursuant to his reply, 29 November 1982, c. 87.]: The tables show details of the headings under which the Department gives grants—and grants in aid—to voluntary organisations. As will be apparent, the details will or may have changed by the end of the financial year, but the information given is the fullest now available.
