Subhead L of the Vote for Lands for the current year provides a sum of £10,000 to assist the preservation and improvement of game resources in accordance with approved schemes. As I explained, however, when introducing the Lands Estimate on 7th June last, such assistance is confined to Schemes: of local organisations, representative of all appropriate interests, which hold out promise of worthwhile practical results and which are backed by efficient organisation. So far this year, grants have been approved for 15 Regional Game Councils.
