Justice written question – answered at on 8 November 2010.
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice how much his Department spent on hospitality for events hosted by each of its Ministers in (a) September and (b) October 2010.
The only expenditure of this nature incurred during this period was by me, as Secretary of State for Justice and Lord Chancellor on the following events:
Event | Cost (£) | |
1 October 2010 | Cost of opening of legal year breakfast | 13,176 |
18 October 2010 | Lord Mayor Elect ceremony | 340 |
Total | - | 13,516 |
All hospitality is closely scrutinised and carefully monitored to ensure good value for taxpayers' money and that it stays within the appropriate rules and guidelines.
