I have been asked to reply.

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave on 17th December to the hon. Member for Willesden, West (Mr. Pavitt). More than 300 copies were available on 20th December for distribution outside Government Departments and the further reprint of 4,000 copies is now being delivered to Her Majesty's Stationery Office.—[Vol. 828, c. 213.]
