HC Deb 02 February 1989 vol 146 cc349-50W
Mr. Allen

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will make it his practice when answering questions by reference to previous written answers which have been published in the Official Report to attach the answer so referred to.

Mr. Norman Lamont

No; to copy extracts from the Official Report for hon. Members would be an inappropriate use of resources.
