Answer: Sir George Gardiner: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer to how many hon. Members he sent his circular letter on the documents relating to the proposed European single currency stability pact. [6663] Mr. Kenneth Clarke: [holding answer 28 November 1996]: I wrote to every hon. Member. I understand there were some logistical problems which, unfortunately, resulted in not all hon. Members receiving their copy before my statement to the House on 25 November. However, I did ensure that a large number of copies were deposited in the Whips Office before my statement, and on the day of my statement I arranged for further copies to be deposited in the Libraries of both Houses.
