Second European Poverty Programme (Hansard, 19 July 1985)

§ Mr. John Patten

The United Kingdom Government submitted 245 applications for financial assistance to the European Commission under the Second European Community Programme to Combat Poverty. The organisations are listed. The projects relate to the themes for the programme as follows:

	Number
Long term unemployed people	24
Young unemployed people	31
Elderly	23
Single parent families	19
Refugees	13
Second generation immigrants	42
Multiple client groups including rural projects	93

The funds sought from the Commission by each project vary between £25,000 and £200,000 in most cases. It would be disproportionately costly to extract and set out the title and exact amount sought for each project individually.
