§ Mr. Fauldsasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will arrange for the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art to submit the text of its report covering the year ended 30 June 1981 to him by the end of the present calendar year, with a view to its publication early in 1982.
§ Mr. Channon:Work on the twenty-seventh annual report is under way. It will be published as soon as possible, but I cannot as yet specify a date. As the hon. Member knows from the reply he had in August 1980, we hope to continue the recent trend towards earlier publication.
