HL Deb 09 January 1996 vol 568 c20WA
Lord Lester of Herne Hill

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will make Hansard generally available to the public on line; and if not, why not.

Baroness Blatch

SinceHansard is subject to parliamentary copyright, that is not a decision for the Government but for the House authorities. I understand that parliamentary officials are currently considering this question and will make their conclusions known in due course.
