I propose to take Questions Nos. 237, 260, 262, 267 and 269 together.
An amount of £9 million has been provided from national lottery surplus funds in my Department's vote for 1991 to fund the amenities/recreational facilities grant scheme. Of this amount, a sum of £5 million will be required to meet outstanding commitments under the 1990 scheme, leaving the balance of £4 million available for fresh allocations.
Figures for the number and amounts of grants recommended by local authorities under the 1991 scheme are not yet available as all local authorities have not yet submitted the lists of projects.
