To all MP's and MEP's:- NCIL statement on current financial circumstances:-
Can you please support and attend to this matter urgently on behalf of the
National Centre Independent Living(NCIL).
As you are well informed that the Government are commited to having a CIL in
every City and Town across the UK by 2012, but as I have pointed out to you
all in the past, especially at the 'Whos' Life is it Anyway Conference',
that I attended and brought to all your attention and having a CIL in every
City and Town is not ever going to happen if the appropraite funding is not
put in place for all disabled people's 'run and controlled' organisations
are not able to compete within the 'market-place'. As you know many of
these disabled people's orgainsisations and CIL's and now NCIL are having to
'close-down', due to funding problems.
Can you please support NCIL on this matter.
Yours Sincerely
Mr Colin Revell, East Riding of Yorkshire... See my email in support of Roy
Webb and NCIL below....

As you can see included below I have forwarded a copy of your email to
various MP's and MEP's in support of National Centre Independent

Yours

Dear friends,
one thing which might be useful is if list members could write to their
member of Parliament, or to Patricia Hewitt, or both, requesting that the
date for Section 64 funding application announcements for all voluntary
sector organisations be bought forward, so announcements will be made before
31st March 2006.
NCIL have been waiting for a statement on their application for funding
since September 2005 due to political pressures, where the Department has
suspended all funding under Section 64, because of reorganisation within
the Department.we should argue that the funding for voluntary sector
organisations has always been budgeted for separately and shouldn't be
included in any staff reorganisation calculations. An announcement before
31 March will save at least part of NCIL. All support welcome.
Roy Webb
(personal capacity)
