§ Mr. Bercow
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will deposit in the Library a copy of the (a) OECD report on offshore centres of tax competition and (b) code of conduct paper discussed at ECOFIN on 29 November 1999; and if he will make a statement. [108280]

§ Dawn Primarolo

The Code of Conduct states that it is for ECOFIN to decide whether to publish the final report. The UK is pressing for the report to be published.
