To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, how much funding the Government has awarded to the Foundation for Social Improvement since that charity was founded.

The functions of the Office for Civil Society (OCS), were transferred to DCMS effective 21st July 2016. Since 1st April 2008 to date OCS has awarded £148,076 in grants and contracts to the Foundation for Social Improvement. DCMS does not hold any information relating to grants or contracts made by OCS to the FSI before 1st April 2008. The rest of DCMS has not awarded any grants or made any payment to the FSI since it was founded in 2007
