Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, pursuant to the Answer of 17 April 2023 to Question 175612 on Written Questions: Government Responses, if he will make an estimate of the total cost to the public purse of answering the 61,427 written parliamentary questions submitted in 2022.

As set out in my response to PQ175612, the cost of each PQ depends on a number of factors which will vary from department to department.

It would therefore exceed the disproportionate cost threshold to estimate this figure.
