Mr. Corbett

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will estimate the likely savings to his Department arising from the transfer of current responsibilities for food safety to the proposed Food Standards Agency. [47591]

Mr. Rooker

Resources currently devoted to food safety and standards work will be transferred to the Food Standards Agency when it is established. There will therefore be no savings to the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food.
