HC Deb 22 April 1993 vol 223 c182W
Mrs. Anne Campbell

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what assessment has been made on the effect of the proposed cuts in section 11 funding on the educational standards achieved by all pupils in schools.

Mr. Peter Lloyd

Grant will continue to be available to support all projects approved for funding. The assessment of local needs is primarily a matter for local authorities, but we are in close touch with local authorities and others in order to ensure that the available funding achieves maximum benefit for members of ethnic minorities.
