Mr. Wilshire

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport if he will list in descending order of value(a) the number and type of National Lottery grants awarded to organisations in each constituency and (b) the total value of all National Lottery grants made to organisations in each constituency. [105898]

Kate Hoey

[holding answer 20 January 2000]: I have placed the following tables in the Libraries of the House: (a) the total number of Lottery awards to each constituency broken down by good cause and (b) the total value of grants awarded to each constituency broken down by good cause, both shown in descending order.

The data have been taken from the National Lottery Awards Database which has been compiled using information on National Lottery awards supplied by the Distributing Bodies. The tables exclude Lottery awards not attributed by the Distributing Bodies to a particular constituency. The constituency information relates to the address to which the Lottery Award was sent.
