Record Copies of Acts

Proceeding contribution from James Gray (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 20 April 2016. It occurred during Backbench debate on Record Copies of Acts.

I am grateful to the hon. Lady for raising an extremely important point. She is quite right that if some complicated piece of machinery were required at great cost, meaning that it would take us years and years to pay that off, it would be important to take that into consideration. However, the fact of the matter is that any corner shop—any printer in the land—can print on vellum. I have been informed by printers—there are two in my constituency who would be delighted to do it—that the £56,000 that is currently spent is a great deal too much, and that they would do it for significantly less.
