Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what estimate the Government has made of savings accrued to the public purse as a result of the spending control process with government suppliers in each of the last five years.
The Government's spending control process is one of a number of measures aimed at assuring and improving spending proposals. It is not possible to estimate the savings accrued as a result of the spending control process distinct from other factors that influence Government spending.
