Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how much funding from the public purse has been allocated to his Department for financial year 2018-19 for planning for the UK leaving the EU without a deal; and how much of that funding has been spent.

For the financial year 2018-19, the department received an allocation of £395 million from HM Treasury to continue preparing for the UK to leave the EU. This amount was the same for a deal and a no deal scenario. The Department is forecasting to spend all of its allocation.
