Statistics and Registration Service Bill

Proceeding contribution from Theresa Villiers (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bills on Statistics and Registration Service Bill.
It seems that the Minister herself has been critical of the rules on pre-release arrangements, as she signed up to the report of the sub-Committee of the Treasury Select Committee that called for a very significant restriction on pre-release rules. In the case of certain data, Ministers would be given only three hours’ notice under such restrictions. Does she stand by that report?
