HC Deb 02 February 1994 vol 236 cc790-1W
Mr. Cryer

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what is the total estimated cost of the charter mark regional seminars for 1994 and the additional costs of promoting and publishing charter marks.

Mr. Waldegrave

A decision has yet to be taken on the number of charter mark seminars to be held, and I am not yet able, therefore to give an estimated cost.

In 1993, we spent £105,000 to announce the scheme, and £345,000 to announce the charter mark winners. The figures are likely to be similar this year.
