§ Mr. DafisTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales what calculations he has made of the changes in levels of funding for the youth service in Wales since 1989; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Gwilym JonesIt is for individual local councils to determine the priority that they give to youth activities when apportioning money between functions. Net current expenditure by local authorities for the years 1990–91, 1991–92 and 1992–93, was £12.0 million, £13.3 million and £13.7 million respectively. Information is not available on a consistent basis for prior years and outturn data is not yet available for 1993–94.
