HC Deb 18 June 1990 vol 174 c407W
Mr. Martyn Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security if he will raise the level of funding for the independent living fund to £20 million per year.

Mr. Scott

Provision for the fund in the current year was already set at £24 million. Following my announcement to the House on 3 April, a further £8 million is to be made available bringing the provision for the fund to £32 million in 1990–91.
