HC Deb 09 June 1986 vol 99 c8W
Mr. Hancock

asked the Lord Privy Seal if he will consider introducing 100 per cent. recycled stationery paper and envelopes for the use of hon. Members and staff; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Biffen

The Services Committee decided in February 1982 that available papers, containing recycled waste, were not acceptable for Members' stationery. Since then HMSO has reveiwed regularly the available paper containing waste, but has not yet discovered any of a quality superior to that previously rejected by the Committee.
