HC Deb 25 July 1997 vol 298 c769W
Mr. Cohen

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what is the Government's policy on "Government Direct"; and if he will make a statement. [10391]

Dr. David Clark

The "Government.Direct" Green Paper contained many good ideas on making the best use of new technology and the new White Paper, "Better Government" will harness these with an agenda which will bring Government closer to the people and provide better services for everybody. We are continuing to consult interested parties who responded to the Green Paper.
