Both the Renton report in 1975 and the Rippon Commission in 1992 took a cautious view; the former said they should be employed selectively and with caution; the latter that they should not be used as a general practice (Q 338).
As Sir Geoffrey Bowman reminded us, the advantage of an informal document produced by a department is that the cost would fall on the department's budget rather than Parliament's.
Indeed, Sir Geoffrey Bowman noted the effect of both carry-over and the publication of bills in draft: "The increased tendency to carry over Bills should lead to a more evening out of the workload and publishing more Bills in draft does tend to have the same effect" (Q 349).

On the contrary, when Geoffrey Rippon, the minister in charge of our negotiations, went to see M. Werner on October 27, the minutes of their discussion show that Rippon went out of his way to congratulate him on his report, which he said “well stated our common objectives”.
It was vital, Mr Rippon urged on M.Werner, that this goal of political and economic union should be achieved only in a “step by step approach”, because “it was natural for people to be afraid of change” and “part of his problem in Britain was to reassure people that their fears were unjustified”.
He instructed Rippon to give way, and when Rippon was questioned about this in the House of Commons on December 13, he answered with a straight lie.
