Mr. MacShane: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment how many (a) successful and (b) unsuccessful attempts have been made by United Kingdom organisations in the last four years to obtain funds from (i) the EU's promotion of training and mobility of researchers, (ii) Youth for Europe, (iii) Leonardo da Vinci, (iv) Socrates, (v) NOW, (vi) Youthstart, (vii) Integra, (viii) Adapt and (ix) Horizon schemes; and what funds have been allocated to the United Kingdom under each of these schemes. [12339] Mr. Paice: The information is not available in the exact form requested. The tables set out the information that is available for each scheme. However, full information on projects funded in individual member states by the framework programme, including the training and mobility of researchers programme, is held only by the Commission. Thus, information on the numbers of successful and unsuccessful applications and the precise funds allocated to each member state are not available. The current programme "Youth for Europe III" started in 1995 and the following information is available. Information on the funding of the centralised part of the programme is available from the Commission. The decentralised part of YFE III is administered on a national basis. Youth for Europe III _________________________________________________________________________________________________.

Figures for the Leonardo da Vinci programme are available from 1995, when the programme began, and are as follows: Leonardo da Vinci _________________________________________________________________________________________________.

SOCRATES projects are transnational and can be divided into centralised and decentralised actions. For decentralised actions the UK is allocated a block sum by formula to distribute amongst UK participants. For centralised actions there is no separate UK allocation, rather the funding for the projects is shared between participant organisations. The figures shown for SOCRATES centralised actions represent the funding made available for transnational projects co-ordinated by UK organisations. {1} In January 1997 1 ecu = £0.7373. {2} Includes ERASMUS Thematic Networks, COMENIUS 2 and 3(i), LINGUA actions A and D, Open and Distance Learning, and Adult Education. {3} Individual participants in LINGUA, ARION and COMENIUS 1 and 3(ii) projects. {4} Individual student mobility grants under ERASMUS. {5} 1996 figures still provisional. {6} Figure not yet available for 1996-97.
