HL Deb 14 February 2000 vol 609 c128WA
Lord Tebbit

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many new regulations have been made by the Treasury since May 1997; and how many have been repealed. [HL653]

Lord McIntosh of Haringey

It is not possible to tell which of the statutory instruments that have been made since May 1997 amend existing regulations, repeal existing regulations or are deregulatory in their effect, except at disproportionate cost.
