A total fund of £2,222,000 has been allocated to my Department in the Estimates to support the operating costs of voluntary youth organisations together with a variety of youth activities and programmes in 1984. Applications for assistance from the fund as well as proposals for new developments are being considered at present by my Department and I hope to be in a position to make a detailed announcement on the matter in the near future.
