Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Pursuant to the Answer of 4 September 2024, to Question 2625, on Prime Minister: Public Expenditure, what the monetary value is of the 2% administrative savings that each individual government department and public body will be expected to make; and in which financial years those savings will fall.
As part of the tough measures the Chancellor is taking to address the £22bn inheritance, departments were asked to reduce their admin budgets by 2%, saving £225 million across departments. 2024-25 administration budgets are set out in 2024 Public Expenditure Statistical Analysis (PESA).
