To ask Her Majesty's Government further to the Written Answer by Baroness Royall of Blaisdon on 17 June (WA 216), why they refer to government documents to answer parliamentary Questions instead of supplying the information; and whether they will ensure that answers are extrapolated from any document and provided in full in the Official Report, where the cost of doing so is not disproportionate. [HL4803]

I refer the noble Lord to the Answer I gave on 17 June 2009 (Official Report, col. WA 216) which also applies for the procedure for referring to government documents to answer parliamentary Questions.
