Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, in view of the fact that much information which in Great Britain is difficult or impossible for hon. Members to obtain is available to them in the United States of America, by using the United States of America Freedom of Information Act if he will give instructions to his Department and the British Embassy in the United States of America to assist hon. Members if they wish to obtain such information to help them in their parliamentary duties.

Mr. Tomlinson

If the hon. Member will let me know what kind of information he has in mind, my right hon. Friend will look into the matter.
