To ask the Scottish Executive whether it intends to increase the training grants available to Alcohol Focus Scotland to meet the increased demand for counsellors arising from its Plan for Action on Alcohol Problems
There are no immediate plans to increase the training grants to Alcohol Focus Scotland. The Plan for Action on Alcohol Problems has only recently been published and the Executive will give consideration to training grants for Alcohol Focus Scotland as the plan rolls out and priorities are clarified.
