§ Mrs. Gillian ShephardThe information requested is in the table:
health authorities, and voluntary child care organisations, specified in her answer of 15 November, Official Report, column 339.
§ Mrs. Virginia BottomleyI have been asked to reply.
This information is not available centrally. It is for local authorities and health authorities to determine the deployment of their overall resources to specific services in the light of legislative requirements, and local circumstances, needs and priorities. Government grants to voluntary organisations working in the field of child protection are usually paid as contributions to headquarters administration expenses.
