HC Deb 31 March 2004 vol 419 c1458W
Simon Hughes

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what grants were made available to(a) the Greater London Authority and (b) each London borough from her Department in each of the last four financial years. [163102]

Mr. Caborn

The Department for Culture, Media and Sport provides a grant of £1.9 million per year to the Greater London Authority for the promotion of London to tourists as a destination in its own right and as a gateway to the rest of the UK and for the improvement of tourism amenities and facilities.

Other grants are allocated by the Department on a national level so it is not possible to give the amount available to each London borough.
