Proceeding contribution from Lord Clement-Jones (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 13 March 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on National Lottery Bill.


National Lottery Bill

It might be useful if the Minister responded to me on this matter now, rather than at the end. On 14 June in the other place, Mr Purnell said:"““We guarantee that between 60 and 70 per cent. of Big Lottery Fund grants will go to the voluntary sector””.—[Official Report, Commons, 14/6/05; col. 175, 218.]" Is the Minister saying that the Government are no longer saying that, and that it is purely a matter for the Big Lottery Fund now?
