HC Deb 01 December 1980 vol 995 c4W
Mr. Watson

asked the Prime Minister how many of the replies given to written parliamentary questions during the week commencing 10 November provided information additional to that already available from sources already provided by Her Majesty's Government.

The Prime Minister

While some two-thirds of my own written answers to substantive questions in the week concerned provided new information, I have much sympathy with the point made by my hon. Friend.
