HC Deb 24 January 1979 vol 961 c121W
Mr. Sillars

asked the Minister for the Civil Service what is his estimate in a full year of the extra printing costs incurred by the British Parliament to ensure that hon. Members and Peers have EEC documents available to them.

Mr. Charles R. Morris

EEC publications are not separately printed in the United Kingdom. Those required by Parliament are supplied through Her Majesty's Stationery Office which is official United Kingdom sales agent for EEC publications. I regret that information is not readily available about the cost of meeting demands by hon. Members for these publications; but further inquiries are being made and I will write to my hon. Friend as soon as possible.

If my hon. Friend has any particular documents in mind perhaps he will write to me.
