HC Deb 09 November 1972 vol 845 cc224-5W
Mr. Kilfedder

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland whether the advice tendered to him by the advisory commission will be made public, particularly advice and recommendations on draft Orders in Council, which are to be introduced into the House and which have not been debated at Stormont.

Mr. David Howell
