(e) Appointments to Horticulture Research International are made by Defra. Details are set out in Defra's response to parliamentary question number 150839.

Union Modernisation Fund

Mr. Stephen O'Brien: To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what the planned budget is of the Union Modernisation Fund for each year between 2004 and 2009. [153550]

Mr. Sutcliffe: We have not yet set the fund's budgets for individual years because our planning is at an early stage. I envisage that total spend from the fund will be of the order of £5 million to £10 million. I do not expect any expenditure from the fund before 2005–06 and I have not yet decided when it will close.

Mr. Stephen O'Brien: To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what proportion of the Union Modernisation Fund will be (a) discretionary and (b) for helping workplace representatives to understand corporate accounts and corporate strategies; and if she will make a statement. [153551]

Mr. Sutcliffe: Our ideas to establish a fund are in their early stages. However, we plan to undertake a full public consultation on the draft rules of the fund in the autumn. When we have finalised the detailed rules of the fund after those consultations, we will be able to answer the particular questions you raise.

EDUCATION AND SKILLS

"Schools for the Future"

Mr. Allen: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills when he will announce his decisions on the next round of "Schools for the Future". [153131]

Mr. Miliband: We aim to announce successful projects in the first wave of Building Schools for the Future shortly. A written statement will be made to Parliament. Later this year, we expect to make announcements about subsequent waves of funding.

Behaviour Improvement Programme

Mr. Hoban: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills pursuant to his answer of

10 Feb 2004 : Column 1369W

8 January 2004, Official Report, column 470W, to the hon. Member for Mid-Worcestershire (Mr. Luff), which local education authorities have received funds under the Behaviour Improvement Programme; and how much money they have received in each year since 1997 to enable them to tackle pupil behaviour. [148322]

Mr. Ivan Lewis [holding answer 19 January 2004]: The following tables provide information relating to local education authorities in the first and second phases of the Behaviour Improvement Programme (BIP). As well as BIP funding, they provide details of other DfES funding allocated through Standards Fund grants that was most relevant to pupil behaviour and attendance as

10 Feb 2004 : Column 1370W

well as inclusion more generally. Details of expenditure on behaviour-specific measures are not collected centrally and cannot therefore be disaggregated.

The grants have been spent on a wide range of measures to support schools and pupils, including learning mentors, learning support units, education welfare officers, behaviour and education support teams, additional time for senior school staff to focus on behaviour and attendance issues, electronic registration systems for schools, enhanced pupil referral units and other forms of alternative provision for excluded pupils, additional services on school sites to increase community involvement and support for parents of disaffected pupils.

Notes:

1. The gaps in:

(a) the Behaviour Grants columns relate to new LEAs created by local government reorganisation and LEAs that were unsuccessful in their bids for these competitive grants;

(b) the School Inclusion: Pupil Support (SIPS) Grant columns reflects the fact that Brent did not accept its SIPS allocation in 1999–2000;

(c) the Excellence in Cities (EIC) columns reflects the fact that EIC grants were phased in over a number of years.

2. The SIPS Grant ended in 2002–03.

3. BIP phase 1 commenced September 2002. BIP phase 2 commenced in April 2003.
