asked the Secretary of State for Employment what public funds falling on the job creation scheme allocation have been paid to date to the Luton Campaign for Homosexual Equality.

I am informed that the Manpower Services Commission has paid £2,009 to Troika, a consortium of voluntary organisations which is sponsoring a project under the job creation programme in Luton. The project includes the employment of a counsellor/coordinator at the Luton headquarters of the Campaign for Homosexual Equality and it is estimated that £1,150 has so far been paid towards the cost of this part of the project.
