2 Reports
3. During Session 2003-04 we produced three Reports,
all of which were published during calendar year 2004. In addition,
the Committee published one set of evidence on a free-standing
basis, as it was not thought necessary to produce a Report on
that particular inquiry. [2]
4. Last year we reported that the previously unacceptable
situation concerning the delay in the Government responding to
the Committee's Reports seemed to have been rectified.[3]
We are pleased to confirm that this improvement has continued.
The Committee published its Report on the Coincidence of Parliamentary
Constituency Boundaries and the Consequences of Change on
3 February, and we received the Government's response on 29 March.
Our Report on The Proposed Whisky Strip Stamp was published
on 26 April, with the Government response being received on 22
June. Our other Report, Work of the Committee in 2003,
did not require a response.
