HC Deb 22 November 1976 vol 919 c848W
Mr. Mather

asked the Minister for the Civil Service what national newspapers have recently been included on those proper to use for Governmental advertising purposes: and what obstacles have been removed to justify their inclusion on the approved list.

Mr. Charles R. Morris

All national newspapers are considered in planning the media strategy for Government advertising campaigns. TheMorning Star recently provided independently audited circulation figures which enable this newspaper to be considered for inclusion in Government advertising schedules in exactly the same way as other national newspapers.
