HL Deb 04 April 2003 vol 646 cc157-8WA
Baroness Anelay of St Johns

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Further to the Answer by Lord Falconer of Thoroton on 25 March (HL Deb, col. 646), whether they will place in the Library of the House a copy of the invitation to tender for the national firearms licensing management system and a copy of the timetable for responses, scrutiny and award of a contract to deliver that system. [HL2309]

Lord Falconer of Thoroton

I am arranging for the timetable of proposed actions to be placed in the Library together with details of the high level award criteria. The actual invitation to tender is commercially confidential and cannot be made available in this way at present.
