HC Deb 23 October 1985 vol 84 c148W
Mr. Barry Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will provide special financial help to Mencap's play scheme for handicapped pupils at Ysgol y Bryw, Shotton, when the five year urban aid grant expires in 1986; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Mark Robinson

Longer-term funding of projects supported by the urban programme is a matter for the sponsoring councils to consider. MENCAP could also explore with the Clwyd Joint Secretariat for Services to Mentally Handicapped People whether the Ysgol y Bryw scheme could be included in the development of services under the mental handicap strategy, which is funded by the Welsh Office.
