The answer

Answered by Margaret Curran on 17 Jun 2002 · 31 days after it was lodged, 12 days after it was due

We launched a breakfast services grant of £250,000 in November 2001. However, before issuing funding guidelines, we are conducting a review of breakfast services to establish details on numbers of places and providers, where appropriate demand lies and best use of the funds to support the service. The review is being led by Health Education Board for Scotland and will aim to complete during summer 2002.In her answer to S1O-4973 on 28 March 2002, Cathy Jamieson indicated other ways that the Executive is supporting the development of breakfast clubs.
