Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how much the Office for Veterans' Affairs has spent on hospitality in each of the last four financial years.

In line with Cabinet Office policy, it is permissible for Business Units to provide hospitality for meetings with external partners such as industry or foreign governments.

All Business Units within the Cabinet Office have a responsibility to keep official hospitality costs as low as possible and demonstrate good value for money.

The Cabinet Office’s hospitality spend is published on GOV.UK in the usual way.
