Mr. Sheerman: To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport how much funding her Department has allocated for
(a) the long-term storage of the British Library's newspaper collection and (b) the archiving of digital material as
required under the Legal Deposits Libraries Act 2003. [175968]
Estelle Morris: DCMS recognises the key storage needs of the British Library, and in SR 2002 set aside an extra amount of capital
(£3 million in 2004-05 and £8 million in 2005-06) to help the British Library address this. The Department is aware of
the British Library's bid for further resources to accelerate the programme of newspaper microfilm surrogate production and to
manage digital materials. This is being considered as part of the 2004 Spending Review. The Legal Deposit Libraries Act 2003 allows
for the possibility of archiving digital material; the precise manner in which this is done will be dependent on regulations which
will be brought forward incrementally after consideration by an Advisory Panel.

Sir Alan Haselhurst: To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage how she plans to take forward the proposals for extension
of legal deposit to electronic and other non-profit publications from the British Library, the other legal deposit libraries and the
British Film Institute in January 1996; and if she will make a statement. [15563]
Mr. Sproat: The Government have today published a consultation paper which seeks views on the present arrangements for legal deposit
of printed publications with the British Library and the other legal deposit libraries; invites comments on the availability and use
of legal deposit material in Northern Ireland; and seeks views on a range of voluntary and statutory options for deposit of
electronic publications, sound recordings, films and video recordings, and microform publications. The paper also seeks views on
establishing a mechanism for further extension of legal deposit without the need for fresh primary legislation.
The main purpose of legal deposit is to establish as comprehensive an archive as possible of our national published output for use
by future generations. As publication technology, and non-print forms of publication, develop the Government regard it as essential
that some way is found to ensure that published material in forms other than print is deposited in our national archives. The
consultation paper addresses the scope for building on existing voluntary arrangements and extending statutory deposit. Legal
deposit imposes a burden on publishers, and it is essential that we consult fully on the issues with the publishing and film
industries, as well as with libraries, their users and others with an interest. The consultation paper addresses the circumstances
in which published material can be accessed and preserved without infringing publishers' intellectual property rights or damaging
their business interests. It also includes a draft assessment of the additional costs which publishers, film producers and film
distributors might incur in complying with an extended system of legal deposit.
I have today placed a copy of the consultation paper in the Libraries of the House, and the Government are arranging for copies to
be sent to a wide range of bodies and individuals with an interest in legal deposit. Further copies are available, on request, from
my Department. The consultation paper seeks responses by 11 April. Anybody wishing to comment on the issues raised in the
consultation paper, including the additional burden which extended legal deposit would place on business, should write by that date
to my Department. In the light of the responses which we receive, the Government will consider whether to introduce legislation on
legal deposit.
