That this House congratulates the Hansard Society for Parliamentary Government on its first King-Hall Paper 'What Price Hansard'; notes with concern the escalation in the daily price of the Official Report from 45 pence in 1979 to ú7.50 now and the corresponding dramatic fall in sales; and urges the Leader of the House and the Administration Committee to give urgent attention to the report's recommendations and the better provision of parliamentary papers generally.

This motion has been ammended, see 1626A1.

This motion has been signed by a total of 49 MPs.
