§ Mr. CHADWICKasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether he is aware of the delay on the part of the Stationery Office in supplying various Government publications; whether provincial firms are finding it impossible to get orders executed, in many cases, under five or six weeks; and whether this is due largely to lack of control rather than adequacy of staff?
§ Mr. BALDWINI am not aware of any delay, due to lack of control, on the part of the Stationery Office in supplying Government publications. If, however, the hon. Member will bring to my notice any specific instances of the kind of delay he has in mind I will cause enquiries to be made into the matter.
