Framework Document (Hansard, 2 March 1995)

HC Deb 02 March 1995 vol 255 c681W 681W

§ Mr. Barnes
To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many copies of the framework document have been produced and distributed in Northern Ireland; and at what cost.

§ Mr. Ancram
Between 22 February and 1 March, almost 150,000 copies were printed, of which about 100,000 are already in circulation.
The total cost of printing and distribution over the same period is estimated at £216,000.
The importance of the document and the need to secure wide and informed public debate requires widespread distribution to the public. Printing will continue until the demand for copies is met.
