Dawn Primarolo: Under our Parent Know How programme we are funding seven third sector organisations to provide helpline support for parents in England.
Management data, including the number of telephone calls received and answered by the helplines, were collected on a quarterly basis in the first year (1 April 2008-31 March 2009). In the current year, we are now collecting those data on a monthly basis. The following table shows a breakdown of the number of recorded calls received and answered by each helpline between 1 April 2008 and 30 November 2009.
