Format and charging
Where a fee is charged for information or if information is only available in hard copy, this is specified in the publication scheme.
If you ask us for information which is only available in hard copy, or if you require any information which is available online in hard copy instead, we may have to make a reasonable charge to cover photocopying and postage costs. These charges are in line with those set by the Parliamentary Archives for ordering copies of information they hold. Details of these charges can be found on their webpages.
