HC Deb 12 April 1983 vol 40 c369W
Mr. Hardy

asked the Prime Minister if she will take steps to locate and release the evidence submitted by the late Alan Grimshaw to the Royal Commission on standards of conduct in public life.

The Prime Minister

The papers of the Royal Commission on Standards of Conduct in Public Life are subject to the provisions of the Public Records Acts 1958 and 1967 and are held in the Public Record Office. It would not be appropriate to release the late Mr. Grimshaw's evidence, which was taken in confidence, at this early date.
