HC Deb 04 February 2002 vol 379 c708W
Mr. George Howarth

To ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department, how much his Department spent on IT consultants in 1992–93, 1993–94 and 1994–95. [32050]

Mr. Wills

Prior to 1995–96 information was not held centrally. On the best information available, I can provide total expenditure for external consultants for the specified period as set out in the table, but this cannot be broken down specifically for IT consultants.

£ million
1992–93 4.706
1993–94 2.070
1994–95 2.254
