HC Deb 05 May 1987 vol 115 c339W
Mr. Gordon Brown

asked the Paymaster General if he will detail all the costs incurred in the study by Professor Addison of the University of North Carolina; and when the report will be made available.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

The study by Professor Addison was part of the research project into workfare carried out by the university of Buckingham. The total cost of the project was £19,926. It is not possible to provide specific cost figures for particular aspects of the project.

I understand that the employment research centre at the university intends to publish Professor Addison's report soon.
