Mrs. Bain
asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is the total allocation of funds by his Department, on an annual basis, to schools in Scotland for social and recreational purposes.
Mr. William Ross

Of that amount, £1.5 million related to school linked projects. In 1975–76 the total allocation will be £6.3 million of which £2·5 million is for school-linked projects.
