Following the consultation that took place on the 'Implementing Dormant Accounts' scheme in Wales, responses will be collated, analysed and presented to the Welsh Assembly Government in Spring 2009. In Summer 2009 ther will be an announcement on agreed spending priorities and the mechanism for delivering the 'Dormant Accounts' fund. Approximately 12 million pounds is being made available from dormant bank accounts with the money allocated to support some of the priorities of the Welsh Assembly Government. It would seem logical that these accounts belong to many older people in Wales, so check them out if you have held a bank account that you have not used for the past 15 years. If you wish to contribute to the consultation, please contact Betty Smith on 01686 611702 and send your response to the Dormant Accounts Consultation, Big Lottery Fund, 6th Floor, 1, Kingsway, Cardiff, CF10 3JN
