HC Deb 20 November 1997 vol 301 cc250-1W
Mr. Matthew Taylor

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what is his policy in respect of the faxing of press releases on the day of release to Opposition party spokesmen; what changes have been introduced since 1 May; and if he will make a statement.[16293]

Dr. David Clark

Press notices are not routinely faxed to Opposition spokesmen. They are available on request and are automatically posted to individuals who have asked to be put onto the Cabinet Office press notice mailing list. There has been no change since 1 May.
