Northern Ireland
Departmental Translation Services
Mr. Paul Goodman: To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how much was spent on translation services by his Department, associated agencies and non-departmental public bodies in (a) 2003-04, (b) 2004-05, (c) 2005-06, (d) 2006-07 and (e) to date in 2007-08. [187993]
[Official Report, 6 March 2008, Vol. 472, c. 2689W.]
An error has been identified in the written answer I gave to the hon. Member for Wycombe (Mr. Goodman) on 6 March 2008: The correct answer, detailing expenditure by the Northern Ireland Office is as follows:
Mr. Woodward: The following amounts were spent by the Northern Ireland Office, its associated agencies and non-departmental bodies on translation services:
(a) 2003-04: £115,001.83
(b) 2004-05: £257,878.70
(c) 2005-06: £527,454.57
(d) 2006-07: £912,123.00
(e) to date in 2007-08: the return has not been completed for this period yet but as soon as the figures become available we shall provide the hon. Member with this information.
Communities and Local Government
Local Government Finance
Anne Main:
To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government how much
central government grant per head was paid to each (a) county council and (b) unitary authority in England excluding grant to police authorities and local education authorities in the last financial year for which figures are available. [200845]
[Official Report, 28 April 2008, Vol. 475, c. 70W.]
An error has been identified in the written answer given to the hon. Member for St. Albans (Anne Main) on 28 April 2008. The correct answer should have been:
John Healey: The amount of central Government funding paid to each county council and unitary authority excluding grant to police authorities and local education authorities in any financial year is zero because county councils and unitary authorities are all local education authorities.
Treasury
Finance Bill
Angela Eagle: In addition, VED is part of a package of measures that support the European Union 2012 proposal to reduce average new car CO2 emissions to 130g per kilometre, which could save as much as an additional 800 tonnes of CO2 per year by 2020.
[Official Report, 29 April 2008, Vol. 475, c. 264.]
I should have said, and intended to say, in my speech during the Committee of the whole House on the Finance Bill that VED is part of measures
“which could save as much as an additional 8 million tonnes of CO2 per year by 2020.”
