Mrs. Ann Winterton
asked the Lord Privy Seal if he will ensure that parliamentary papers and statements are made available in the Norman Shaw, North issue office at the same time as the main Vote Office; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. Biffen
All parliamentary papers are made available in the Norman Shaw North issue office and the main Vote Office at the same time when there is no time embargo on the papers.If papers and statements are held under a time embargo on a Minister's instruction, they are kept in a sealed packet in the main Vote Office. As soon as the papers are released, a supply is sent immediately to the Norman Shaw North issue office.
