To ask the President of the Board of Trade if she will place in the Library a copy of the internal departmental guidance on the dissemination of information; and if she will make a statement. [16310]

My Department provides a considerable amount of internal guidance to staff on administering the Code of Practice on Access to Government Information. This includes guidance on the proactive dissemination of information as required by the Code. I will be placing copies of my Department's general internal guidance on the Code of Practice in the Library of the House.
