Mr. Steen

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what is the annual budget for his departmental deregulation unit; how many staff it employs; and of these how many(a) are career civil servants and of what grades, (b) have been seconded from business, and (c) have experience of the private sector. [30058]

Mr. Hanley

We are not directly involved in domestic deregulation policy and therefore have no deregulation unit or staff.
