§ Mr. McLoughlinTo ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what the 'administrative costs were for the(a) Designated Museums Challenge Fund grants, (b) Wolfson Public Libraries Fund grants and (c) Spaces for Sport and Art grants in the last financial year. [101481]
§ Dr. HowellsI refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave him on 3 December 2002, Official Report, columns 782–83W, which stated that the administration of the specified grant programmes is carried out by a number of different units within the department and relevant NDPBs, to which a range of staff make a contribution. It is not possible to provide an accurate estimate of these costs centrally.
