HC Deb 25 January 2001 vol 361 c663W
Mr. McNamara

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs on what dates he has held minority ethnic press receptions; and which publications and programmes were represented. [146677]

Mr. Robin Cook

[holding answer 23 January 2001]I have not hosted a reception exclusively for the minority ethnic press. Representatives of the minority ethnic press are regularly invited to social events hosted by me and my Ministerial team.

Mr. McNamara

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will list the UK ethnic minority publications to which his Department subscribes, indicating the editors and producers he has consulted more than once in the last year. [146676]

Mr. Robin Cook

[holding answer 23 January 2001]This information will take some time to collate. I will write to my hon. Friend shortly and place copies of the letter in the Libraries of the House.
