HC Deb 08 December 1980 vol 995 cc289-90W
Mr. Christopher Price

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will list in the Official Report those documents which he has released under section 5(1) of the Public Records Act within the 30-year time limit.

Mr. Mark Carlisle

I have no power under section 5(1) of the Public Records Act to release documents within the 30-year period; and I have not requested the Lord Chancellor to release any documents within that period.
