HC Deb 28 March 1979 vol 965 c171W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether, without incurring disproportionate costs, he will give, for the longest and most convenient period of time, the total number of persons in those quasi-autonomous non-governmental organisations for which he is responsible who have claimed expenses and subsistence and travel allowances, and the totals of all such sums claimed.

Mr. Bishop

I regret that this information is not readily available and could not be obtained without incurring disproportionate cost.
