HC Deb 22 January 1986 vol 90 c228W
Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many representations and letters he has received supporting the continuation of the Greater London council research library and its Acompline database; if he will publish a list of those making representations; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Tracey

Since the passage of the Local Government Act, about 25 such representations have been received in my Department from hon. Members, members of the public, and professional associations. The future of the research library is a matter for the London boroughs and other successors.
