Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what recent estimate he has made of the cost to his Department of preparations for the UK leaving the EU without a deal.

In the financial year 2017/18, BEIS was allocated an additional £35.1m for EU exit work by HM Treasury. In the financial year 2018/19, BEIS received a final allocation of £139.5m. The allocation for 2019/20 is £190m.

No-deal funding is aggregated as part of the Department’s overall spend and therefore cannot be reported separately.
