HL Deb 03 April 1979 vol 399 c1892WA
The Earl of KINNOULL

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will list the cost to public funds anticipated in the explanatory and financial memorandums of each Government Bill enacted since February 1974, other than those whose financial implications were anticipated to be minimal, and the actual cost of each Bill, both at today's prices.

The MINISTER of STATE, PRIVY COUNCIL OFFICE (Baroness Birk)

I regret to say that this Question could only be answered at disproportionate cost.
