HC Deb 01 May 1985 vol 78 c145W
Ms. Harman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what information he has as to which holiday play schemes have closed due to the refusal of applications for funds from the traditional urban programme.

Mr. Macfarlane

This information is not available. Some holiday projects which have been successful for a number of years may continue with local authority funding, as urban programme circular 25 suggests.

Ms. Harman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what representations he has received about cuts in traditional urban programme funding for holiday play schemes.

Mr. Macfarlane

About 60 representations have been received from local authorities, voluntary organisations, and Members of Parliament.
