HC Deb 01 February 1982 vol 17 c54W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what was the total extra cost to his Department of its contributions to the International Year of Disabled People.

Mr. Alison

It is not possible to give a precise figure. Our main contribution to the International Year of Disabled People was the development of the Manpower Services Commission's fit for work campaign for which some £300,000 was allocated; a further £18,000 was spent on other initiatives undertaken by the Commission.
