HL Deb 26 April 1996 vol 571 c118WA
Lord Harris of Greenwich

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What was the cost of answering the Question for Written Answer of the Earl of Northesk on 15th April (WA51).

Lord Mackay of Ardbrecknish

The information requested is not available. The Treasury undertakes an annual exercise to assess the average Government-wide cost of answering written parliamentary questions, but does not cost individual questions.
