Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs written question – answered at on 14 February 2013.
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs how many regulations his Department has repealed in the last six months; and what the estimated cost-saving has been of each such repeal.
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office rarely sponsors regulations and has not been responsible for repealing any regulations in the last six months. It was responsible for revoking 11 Orders in Council relating to the implementation of sanctions measures in the overseas territories since July 2012. Since these measures did not apply in the UK, no cost savings for the UK are anticipated from these revocations.
