§ Mr. Bruceasked the Secretary of State for Scotland when he expects to reply to the request for funding for a 612W young persons' hostel in Aberdeen, from the joint working party on provision for single homeless; and is he will make a statement.
§ Mr. AncramNo such request for funding has been received from the joint working party; consideration is, however, being given to a project submitted by Grampian regional council for urban programme funding for a project being promoted by the Aberdeen Cyrenians for emergency accommodation for young homeless people in Aberdeen. I expect to be able to give a decision about this application soon.
