Answered by Peter Peacock on 30 May 2006 · 12 days after it was lodged, on time

The information requested isnot available centrally, as the relevant information supplied to the Scottish Executiveby local authorities in their Local Financial Returns only specifies their spendingon school boards.
However, in 2004-05 £565,300and in 2005-06, £736,450 was spent on the promotion of parental involvement by the Scottish Executive. This included consultation and information on the Parental InvolvementBill; the Making the Difference series of leaflets, the preparation of a CD Romof good practice and the Parentzone website.
