§ Mr. McCuskerTo ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what are the 1989–90 financial allocations to Northern Ireland's education and library boards for YTP schemes; and how much of this has been allocated by each board for special needs provision.
§ Dr. MawhinneyThe board's estimates of YTP expenditure for 1989–90 have only recently been received by the Department of Education and are now under consideration. I hope to be able to advise the hon. Gentleman of the allocations approved and the amounts included for special needs provision later this month.
