Ms. HannanTo ask the Secretary of State for Social Services (1) how much the community care grant element of the social fund allocated to each of his Department's offices at Camberwell, Peckham, Kennington and Southwark falls short of the amounts paid out in grants in 1985–86, 1986–87 and the projected amount for 1987–88 at those offices;
(2) by how much the total budget for the social fund in terms of loans and grants exceeds or falls short of the 465W amounts paid out in single payments and urgent needs payments in 1985–86, 1986–87 and the projected amount for 1987–88 at his Department's offices at Camberwell, Peckham, Kennington and Southwark.
§ Mr. ScottI shall arrange for the information requested on expenditure in 1985–86 and 1986–87 to be placed in the Library. Projections for expenditure on single payments and urgent needs payments in 1987–88 are not broken down by local office. Provisional outturn figures for 1987–88 on an office-by-office basis are likely to be available in July 1988. Information on the social fund allocations to local offices was contained in my reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Wells (Mr. Heathcoat-Amory) on 4 November at column774–81.
