Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what his Department's net expenditure, excluding refunds, using electronic purchasing cards for purchases with a value of (a) more and (b) less than £500, was in each of the categories (i) travel and accommodation, (ii) stationery, and (ii) other goods and services in the calendar year 2021.

The information needed to answer the right hon. Member's questions is taking time to collate. I will write to her with answers shortly, and place a copy of my letter in the Library of the House.
