Office of Population Censuses and Surveys (Hansard, 5 May 1988)

§ Mrs. Currie

Up to 31 December 1987. OPCS monitors were available free of charge. Following a review of published statistical data, with effect from 1 January 1988, some of the monitors were discontinued and a charging system for the continued monitors was introduced. A copy of the new arrangements has been placed in the Library.

The information requested is as follows. The sales figures are the numbers sold between 1 January and 29 April 1988.
