HC Deb 01 May 1985 vol 78 cc181-2W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will list all those organisations which receive Government funding for counselling work on abortion and state the total amount awarded to each organisation in the latest year for which figures are available.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke:

We make no grants to any organisations whose main role is counselling and providing help for women with unintended pregnancies. We understand that some health authorities provide financial help to such organisations, but we do not know the amounts involved.
