HC Deb 28 January 1997 vol 289 c157W
Sir Wyn Roberts

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what is the average parental income of children currently assisted under the assisted place scheme in Wales. [12607]

Mr. Jonathan Evans

Details of gross parental incomes are not held centrally. However, currently 46 per cent. of parents of children participating under the scheme pay no fees at all because their relevant annual incomes are below the contribution threshold of £9,783.
