To ask the Scottish Executive what administration and expenses budget was allocated to the Adult Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse Reference Group and what has been spent under this budget since the group was formed.
Answer
The £2 million Survivors Fundis the total budget available to the Strategy. £60,007 has been spent to date onlead professional salaries, expenses (for example accommodation for service usersattending meetings), and setting up a website that will go live shortly. Thegroup has also taken time and care to devise the criteria for a Development Fund.Applications are currently being sought for new, innovative services as well as supporting existing fragile initiativesthrough demonstration projects. It is anticipatedthat these will absorb the bulk of the monies available. The fund was launched on26 January and closes on 31 March 2007. As yet, no applications have been receivedbut there is a keen interest as evidenced by requests for application forms.
There is no requirement thatan organisation has charitable status to be eligible for application to the SurvivorsFund, but there will need to be satisfactory evidence that the organisation meets the criteria aslaid out in the fund guidelines.
