HC Deb 03 June 1986 vol 98 cc527-8W
Mr. Kirkwood

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether his Department has any plans to put a cover charge on indices of circulars issued by his Department.

Mr. Whitney

The Department publishes an index of health circulars, notices and other guidance material annually and this has a cover charge; copies are issued free to those authorities which receive the circulars as of right. The index is designed as an aid to the use of published material and the charge is made partially to cover the cost of production.
