Mr. Alex Carlile

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will grant funding to the substance advisory committee to enable it to employ a full-time worker in the Llandrindod Wells area; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Gwilym Jones

This financial year the Welsh Office has allocated to Powys health authority over £131,000 from central funds for combating drugs misuse, to supplement the authority's own investment in this field of work. The location of the drugs misuse workers is a matter for the health authority.
