Proceeding contribution from Lord Young of Cookham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 November 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

I agree with hon. Gentleman. I assure him that there are no plans to reduce the grant in aid that we give to the National Memorial Arboretum. If he is able to stay, there will be a debate in a few minutes on related matters, during which he may have an opportunity to develop his case. The Government take this matter seriously. As he knows, we also support the Commonwealth War Graves Commission to the tune of some £45 million. We place a premium on the work of both those organisations.
