§ Mr. LidingtonTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how much expenditure for 2001–02 for each local probation board will be ring-fenced for Drug Treatment and Testing Orders; what his policy is towards such ring-fencing for future years; and if he will make a statement. [142452]
§ Mr. BoatengThe information for each local probation board is set out in the table. No decision has yet been taken on whether expenditure on Drug Treatment and Testing Orders (DTTOs) will continue to be ring-fenced after 2001–02. The roll out of DTTOs has occurred, and only from 1 October will it be necessary to consider the implications of this roll out before a decision is made for 2002–03 and beyond.
