HC Deb 17 July 1997 vol 298 c243W
Mr. Heathcoat-Amory

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what was the cost of preparing, printing and distributing the pocket Budget edition of the Budget proposals. [8927]

Mrs. Liddell

The Treasury has for some years printed and distributed a "popular" short-form version of the Budget. The final cost for this year will depend on the demand for copies but is expected to be around £50,000.
