§ Mr. PikeTo ask the Secretary of State for Health what amount of Government funds was spent on producing the National Health Service pamphlet "Working for Patients, the Health Service, Caring for the 1990s"; how many of these pamphlets have been printed; and what was the cost of distribution to post offices, as a separate figure.
§ Mr. Kenneth ClarkeThe cost of printing 3.1 million copies of the pamphlet "Working for Patients" was 117,000.
The Post Office makes a single annual charge for the display of my Department's leaflets and posters. The charge covers distribution to individual Post Offices and changes to the leaflets and posters on display at regular intervals. It is not possible to separate out the costs of the pamphlet "Working for Patients".
