HC Deb 26 February 1999 vol 326 cc466-7W
Mr. Maclean

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what(a) reviews, (b) task forces and (c) advisory groups have been established by his Department since 1 May 1997; what costs they have incurred to date; and what reports they have published. [71511]

Mr. Byers

Details of the reviews and task forces established by my Department since 1 May 1997, and of the reports published to date, are set out in the table. Expenditure on these reviews and task forces is not separately recorded, and could not be calculated without incurring disproportionate cost.
