HC Deb 18 April 1990 vol 170 c948W
Mr. Ron Davies

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what was the cost to public funds of producing the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food/WOAD booklet, "At the Farmers Service"; how many copies were produced; how they are being distributed; and whether any charge per copy is being required of the recipients.

Mr. Curry

The new edition of "At the Farmers Service" was produced using desk-top publishing techniques to provide value for money and make future revisions easier. Production costs were £20,000 for 50,000 copies, giving a unit cost of 40p per copy. The booklet is distributed free to members of the farming community and other interested parties.
