HC Deb 20 November 1996 vol 285 cc537-48W
Mr. Skinner

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage if she will list all payments from the national lottery awarded in Derbyshire. [2841]

pro rata to partnership spending, although this is not a hard and fast rule and distributors can help with short-term cash flow difficulties. On committed schemes, each £1 of lottery funds is currently matched by £1.41 of partnership money. Detailed design of buildings etc. These may have to be submitted where sketch drawings have been accepted at assessment stage. Design competitions must sometimes be held. My Department has asked distributors to ensure lottery-funded buildings are well designed. Obtaining full planning permission or listed building consent. Re-negotiating leases with landlords where the scheme involves an extension or improvement to an existing facility. Completing legal documentation on conditions. This can he quite time consuming given the funding arrangements and novelty of many schemes. Tendering of projects—this can be made more difficult by lack of administrative support in some voluntary organisations. Higher value schemes may have to be advertised in the Official Journal of the European Community and European Union rules on tendering met. Seasonal factors can affect work on construction projects (especially true of educational institutions where work might be able to take place only during the school holidays). The expenditure profile for small and large construction projects often means that initial expenditure is low.

The distributors do, of course, wish to move projects effectively from award to completion. I do not, however, see any easy way to shorten the process, but my Department will continue to monitor this situation. It is important that capital projects are set up correctly otherwise they may not achieve value for money.

Distributors must also avoid forcing applicants to do too much preparatory work and spend too much money before the award in principle. Competition for lottery money is fierce, and is likely to become more so as the nature of the projects which the distributing bodies can support widens.

Payments for lottery schemes are staged to reflect the applicants' requirements for the funds. It would he imprudent to pay all the funds in advance. Nearly two thirds of all award recipients have received some funds.

As at 6 November, the figures and the number of award recipients in receipt of their first payment from the lottery are:
