"Lifting the Burden"

HC Deb 27 April 1987 vol 115 c19W

Mr. Shersby

asked the Paymaster General, if he will take steps to publish an up-to-date version of the White Paper entitled, "Lifting the Burden".

Mr. Trippier

"Lifting the Burden" (Cmnd. 9571), published in June 1985, was followed, in May 1986, by a second White Paper on deregulation entitled "Building Businesses … Not Barriers" (Cmnd. 9794). A summary leaflet "Cutting Red Tape" was published at the same time. We expect to publish a further report during 1987.
