HC Deb 28 June 1978 vol 952 cc560-1W
57. Mr. Warren

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will raise in the Council of Ministers the need to improve the administrative efficiency of all organs of the Community in particular by reducing the volume of documents issued

Mr. Tomlinson

It is our constant aim to improve administrative efficiency in the Community and we achieved improvements during the United Kingdom presidency last year. My right hon. Friend does not, however, consider it necessary or appropriate to raise the question of documents in the Council of Ministers at present.
