§ Mr. Hicksasked the Minister for Trade if it is now his intention to issue a circular to local authorities concerning their making a contribution to local citizens advice bureaux; and if he will make a statement.
§ Dr. VaughanI am looking seriously at the possibility of a circular. In the meantime we have made it abundantly clear that we hope local authorities will do all they can within the constraints on public spending as a whole to maintain and where possible improve their support for Citizens Advice Bureaux.
