HC Deb 25 March 1968 vol 761 c226W
Mr. Roebuck

asked the President of the Board of Trade what action he has taken to assist newspapers to use home-produced newsprint in the light of devaluation; and whether he will give details of the response.

Mr. Crosland

My Department have been in touch with the newspaper proprietors about the possibilities of achieving fuller use of British newsprint manufacturing capacity, and I have invited representatives of the proprietors to meet me to discuss this matter.
