[holding answer 25 January 2010]: Help for Heroes is a service charity which was established in 2007 and which raises funds to support wounded members of the armed forces in a range of different ways. As such it receives no public funding from the MOD. Help for Heroes naturally works closely with my Department on the projects that it chooses to support, but decisions on what those projects should be are a matter for the charity. We are enormously grateful for the major contributions that it is making to the welfare of our service personnel across the country. They include a grant of £8 million to support the building of a new swimming pool and gym complex at the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre at Headley Court, Surrey, and financial support for the delivery, in partnership with the MOD, of a Pathfinder Army Recovery Centre in Edinburgh.

I understand that the total cost for the administrators, lawyers and consultants to clear up after the Government break-up of the Dunfermline building society is approaching £26 million. Who was representing the taxpayer's interests when such outrageous fees were agreed for such a small building society?

I am not sure that I recognise those figures, although I will certainly write to the hon. Gentleman as soon as we have the final figures. However, there is a broader point to be made in relation to Dunfermline building society. It would have been nice if we had not been put in that position in the first place, but unfortunately that building society got itself into difficulties and they had to be resolved. That is precisely what we did. Both the hon. Gentleman and I would have liked the Dunfermline to continue as an independent building society. That was not possible, but the reason was that it got itself into difficulties and we had to sort the problems out.

[holding answer 23 November 2009]: The funding disbursed to the army cadet programme in 2009 was £42.46 million. In-year savings have reduced this amount by £4 million.Planning is under way across the Army for next and future financial years but it is too early to say what the outcome of this will be.We are extremely grateful to the adult cadet instructors for their commitment and dedication. As a result of their leadership, the vast majority of cadet detachments are riding out the temporary difficulties caused by the reduction in the Army Cadet Force budget this year.

Office of the Third Sector (OTS) operates a strategic funding programme, which provides long-term core funding and financial stability to third sector organisations that operate at a national and regional level. The programme represents long-term partnership working, strategic partners have been integral in developing policy in a number of areas, including supporting the sector through the downturn.In 2008-09 we provided strategic grants worth £12,206,315 to support 42 third sector organisation strategic partners who can speak with authority and credibility over a very wide range of sector interests. These figures do not include funding for V, who also receives strategic funding but on a separate basis. In 2008-09 they received £5 million, which included marketing costs.
