contained in the Scottish Drugs Forum/Health Education Board for Scotland's "Register of Helping Agencies", copies of which I am arranging to place in the Library.Funding for residential establishments is provided directly and indirectly by the Scottish Office from a number of sources. Most funding for residential establishments is provided locally by local authorities and health boards either from funds specifically allocated for drug misuse or from their general allocations. Details of funding from all these sources could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
It is possible to provide information on the limited funding which is available from the Scottish Office for alcohol and drugs projects, including residential facilities, undertaken by voluntary sector organisations working in the social care field under section 10(1) of The Social Work (Scotland) Act 1968 and of the funding which is available under the urban programme. Details of the residential establishments benefiting under these schemes are set out in the tables.

The decrease in numbers between 1991 and 1992 is largely accounted for by Project 2000 student nurses who are not included in the figures. <4>The 1989 figure includes administrative and clerical staff on grade 18 and above; the 1990-92 figures include grade 7 and above. <5>Includes control assistants and ambulance officers. <6>Part of the increase in numbers in this group is accounted for by the transfer of some professional staff to senior manager grades.
Mr. Wilson : To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what representations he has received from Messrs Wimpey on the proposed Ardrossan-Saltcoats-Stevenston bypass.
Lord James Douglas-Hamilton [holding answer 18 January 1993] : Until such time as a public inquiry is held for a scheme, it is not the Department's practice to make public representations received by parties affected by the scheme. However, Wimpey Homes Ltd is not an objector to the published bypass proposals.
Mr. Morley : To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland pursuant to his answers of 15 December 1992, Official Report, columns 169-70, when Scottish Natural Heritage will write to the hon. Member for Glanford and Scunthorpe.
Sir Hector Monro [holding answer, 18 January 1993] : Scottish Natural Heritage will write to the hon. Member by the end of January. Work related to the MV Braer incident in Shetland has delayed the collection of relevant information.
