Mr. Patrick Maitlandasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether his attention has been brought to documents issued on 1st March, 1952, by the Central Office of Information under reference R2323, 2324, 2325, 2326 and 2327, entitled Government and Administration of the United Kingdom; and, since such publications are not a useful expenditure of public money when the same material is already available in standard works, if he will secure their discontinuance.
