HC Deb 14 May 1991 vol 191 c82W
Mr. McAllion

To ask the Attorney-General what is the 1991–92 annual budget for the Land Registry; and what is the percentage allocated to staff costs.

The Attorney-General

Questions on the day-to-day running of executive agencies are best answered by their chief executives. However, the gross expenditure provision for the Land Registry for 1991–92 is £236,067,000 of which 68.7 per cent. has been allocated to staff costs.

The registry operates a "token" vote, since the whole of its expenditure provision is expected to be fully met by fees paid by applicants.
