§ Sir Geoffrey FinsbergTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if, pursuant to his answer of 14 June, he will list the names and constituencies of those candidates in the 1979, 1983 and 1987 general elections who failed to submit a return within the statutory period allowed.
§ Mr. Douglas HoggThe information requested is given in the return to an address on election expenses which is published after each general election (HCP426(87/88) for the 1987 election, HCP130(83/84) for 1983 and HCP374(79/80) for 1979). In the 1983 publication, the footnote reference indicating that a return of expense had not been received was omitted in error for the National Labour Party candidate in the Ashford constituency.
