Arrangements are now in hand for the design and production of a special series of stamps for Anguilla and it is expected that they will be put on sale in a few weeks.

Mr. Marten

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will give the total cost to date to his Department of the Anguillan operation.

Mr. Whitlock

The extra cost of the Anguilla operation up to the end of June, and lying against Foreign and Commonwealth Office votes, is £100,000 including the sum of £88,000 which represents the cost so far of the Anguilla Police Unit.
