§ Mr. Moonmanasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what are the percentages and totals of his advertising budget allocated to both daily and Sunday newspapers at 31st December 1975 and to 30th June 1976.
§ Mr. PeartI regret that the information requested is not readily available in the form requested. However, my 23W Department has not over this period used newspaper advertising except for small routine announcements such as staff vacancies, notices of a statutory nature, announcements of advisory events or of an advisory character. The estimated cost for the present year is about £100,000. We use a wide variety of daily and weekly newspapers, periodicals, and so on, as the area and the subject require.
