The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office does not hold this level of detail on resources used to answer Written Parliamentary Questions in its central records. There is, however, a Disproportionate Cost Threshold which is set at £850. This is set out in the Guide to Parliamentary Work (2022) published on 14 November 2022.
