HC Deb 29 March 1994 vol 240 c621W
Mr. Boyes

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, pursuant to his answer to the hon. Member for Blaenau Gwent (Mr. Smith) of 23 March,Official Report, column 292, what payment his Department has received from the Conservative and Unionist party for the mistaken use of letterheaded paper.

Mr. Hurd

The cost of the three sheets of headed notepaper used was less than a penny. No further costs were incurred since all photocopying and distribution was done by Conservative central office. It would be disproportionate to seek any reimbursement to the FCO from Central Office.
