HC Deb 04 July 1994 vol 246 c75W
Mr. Ron Davies

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what percentage of his Department's(a) press releases and (b) written answers are printed on recycled paper.

Mr. Forth

The Department's policy is to use recycled paper wherever possible. It is used for all headed paper, enveloped, file covers and forms. For printing purposes recycled paper is best suited to conventional printing processes and not to high speed electronic machines. The Department's press releases and written answers are printed using high speed electronic machines using environmentally friendly—chlorine free—paper.
