Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how much has been claimed in reimbursable expenses by special advisers in his Department in each year since 2010.
The below table sets out the total expenses claimed by Special Advisers in the Department in each year from 2010. This is drawn from a search of records held, including the Ministry of Justice online system for claiming travel and subsistence expenditure.
These expenses were necessarily incurred in the course of official business (including accompanying Ministers on visits and other engagements), in line with our policies.
Records of expenses claimed by Special Advisers prior to April 2010 are not held.
