HC Deb 12 February 2002 vol 380 cc249-50W
Mr. Prisk

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will make a statement on the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs' underspending against the departmental expenditure limits in the last four years. [35397]

Mr. Morley

I have been asked to reply.

The Department has only been in existence since June 2001, so does not have such historical information. It is forecast that budgets will be fully utilised during the current financial year.
