Question

To ask Her Majesty’s Government who made the decision to award the charity Life £250,000 from the Tampon Tax Fund.

Answer

We will shortly finalise the specifics of the grant agreements for each of the 70 projects that successfully applied to the Tampon Tax Fund this year, to ensure that taxpayers' money is put to the best use. We will only make grants where we are 100% certain that they align fully with the aims of the fund. The Minister for Civil Society will make the final decision on the grant award.
