HC Deb 26 January 1996 vol 270 cc422-3W
Mrs. Ann Campbell

To ask the President of the Board of Trade what assessment he has made of developments in the United Kingdom CD-ROM industry. [11127]

Mr. Ian Taylor

This is an active and fast-moving market for which reliable and comprehensive data are sparse. A number of reports have been commissioned by my Department, either alone or in conjunction with the European Commission, analysing specific aspects of the CD-ROM market. The reports reached various conclusions. I am placing copies of them in the Library of the House.
