asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what meetings he or his officials have had with representatives from Action on Alcohol Abuse since July 1985; and if he will make a statement.

Mrs. Currie

There have been no greetings between representatives of Action on Alcohol Abuse and Ministers of this Department since July 1985. The last meeting between representatives of Action on Alcohol Abuse and officials was on 18 July 1985. I have, however, received a request recently and we hope to arrange a meeting soon.

Mr. Neil Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what applications since April he has received for public funds from Action on Alcohol Abuse; what has been his response; and if he will make a statement.

Mrs. Currie

No application for public funds has been received from Action on Alcohol Abuse since April.
