HC Deb 22 March 1994 vol 240 c179W
Mr. Austin Mitchell

To ask the Secretary of State for Education on how many occasions in the last five years he has knowingly provided incomplete information in answers to parliamentary questions other than on grounds of disproportionate cost; and on what subjects.

Mr. Patten

I answer parliamentary questions on the basis set out in paragraph 27 of "Questions of Procedure for Ministers". I also do my best to take account of the need for brevity in answering oral questions.
