HC Deb 06 December 1971 vol 827 cc225-6W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if, when supplying documents for the Library of the House, he will ensure in future that more than one copy is made available, so that Members of Parliament may remove them temporarily to facilitate their work.

Mr. Anthony Royle

Documents are made available to the Library by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in quantities agreed with the Library. In the case of certain publications such as indexes, which are not official documents, only one copy may be held by the Library. The temporary removal of Library copies is a matter for the Library. Official documents supplied to or held by the Library of the House are for use in the Library.
