§ Mr. MilburnTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to his answer of 23 March,Official Report, column 337, if he will list the number of contracts, and their cost, with management consultants in the latest year for which figures are available.
§ Mr. AitkenMy Department does not maintain statistics centrally on the number and value of contracts placed with management consultants; thus, an answer to this question could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
