HL Deb 26 October 2004 vol 665 c121WA
Lord Barnett

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether the United Kingdom Government have made a contribution to the additional cost of the Scottish Parliament building; and, if so, how much. [HL4487]

Lord Evans of Temple Guiting

Responsibility for the construction of the Scottish Parliament is a devolved matter. Its cost has therefore been met from the Scottish assigned budget. The Government have made no additional contribution.
