HC Deb 02 February 1994 vol 236 c794W
Mr. Robert Ainsworth

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will introduce measures to ensure that all charities are entitled to bid for Government grants available for environmental work.

Mr. Atkins

The Department's environmental action fund is the main source of grants for environmental work. The fund is available to voluntary organisations and a number of registered charities get grants.
