HC Deb 19 April 2004 vol 420 cc280-1W
Mr. Llwyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what(a) renovation and (b) maintenance projects on buildings (i) owned and (ii) rented by his Department were undertaken in each of the last live years; and what the associated costs were of each.[163947]

Mr. Pearson

Due to the number of buildings involved and the differing methods of recording by the various Departments of the Northern Ireland Administration and the Northern Ireland Office, disaggregation of the figure-work by project and between owned and rented buildings in line with the question would involve disproportionate cost. The table below gives the information for renovation and maintenance expenditure on both owned and rented buildings for each year.
