§ Mr. DobsonTo ask the President of the Board of Trade what printing contracts the company Hunterprint had, or has outstanding, for work associated with privatisations by the Department of Trade and Industry or the Department of Energy since 1979; and if he will give the dates and the privatisation in question for each contract.
§ Mr. Eggar[holding answer 5 June 1992]: Hunterprint has not been the main contract printers for any privatisations by the Department of Trade and Industry or the former Department of Energy. Comprehensive information on minor printing contracts is not held centrally. However, Hunterprint did print two brochures which were part of the electricity privatisation marketing campaign: one on the offer of shares in the regional 130W electricity companies, issued in August 1990, and the second on the offer of shares in the generating companies, issued in November 1990.
