Ministerial Correction
Thursday 6 March 2008
Electoral Commission Committee
Electoral Commission: Finance
Mr. Tyrie: To ask the hon. Member for Gosport, representing the Speaker's Committee on the Electoral Commission what budget has been set for the Electoral Commission for each of the next three financial years. [186070]
[Official Report, 26 February 2008, Vol. 472, c. 1337-38W.]
An error has been identified in the written answer given to the hon. Member for Chichester (Mr. Tyrie) on 26 February 2008. The correct answer should have been:
Peter Viggers: The Speaker’s Committee considered the Commission’s budget for the four years 2007-08 to 2010-11 when it met in March 2007 and approved a cash flat resource budget of £23,995,000 (including the £2 million annual Policy Development Grant budget) in each of the four years, subject to reconsideration only in the event that Parliament places new responsibilities upon the Commission during this period.
I have written to the hon. Member to advise him of this error and of the correction.
