HC Deb 27 June 1979 vol 969 cc212-3W
Mr. Cryer

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether the proposal to provide an information service at £50 per annum per customer by the Health and Safety Executive has been abandoned.

Mr. Mayhew

It is the intention of the Health and Safety Executive to begin publishing a news bulletin in July 1979 and a subscription list of 150 at £50 per annum has already been built up. This publication is intended to meet a demand mainly on the part of organisations wanting a more frequent and detailed service based on press notice material, than that provided by the Health and Safety Commission newsletter, which is published bimonthly at nominal cost and provides its very large number of recipients with an up-to-date account of developments in the work of the Commission.
