asked the Prime Minister, in writing, on 26 May 2011:

Further to her answer to question in writing No. 199 (House Hansard, 10 May 2011, page 59), are there records within her department or office that provide the basis for which the then Prime Minister made the claims in his press statement on 7 April 2009; if so, can she indicate what those records show.

I am advised that the answer to the honourable member's question is as follows:

My department and office have been unable to locate any records relating to the basis for the figures in the former Prime Minister’s press statement made on 7 April 2009.
