§ The Chief Secretary to the Treasury (Mr. Paul Boateng)The Secretaries of State for Scotland and Wales are responsible for the expenditure of the Scotland Office and the Wales Office within the Department for Constitutional Affairs, including payment of grant to the devolved administrations, although for normal accounting purposes the provision of the former Scotland and Wales Office Departments will be transferred to the Department for Constitutional Affairs. The expenditure for each Office will be contained within separate requests for resources in the DCA Estimate and the Heads of the Scotland and Wales Offices will be appointed as additional accounting officers by the Treasury. Any future changes in the provision for the Scotland Office or the Wales Office will be determined in spending reviews and will continue to be found within the aggregate Scotland and Wales funding in the normal way. The Secretaries of State will continue to represent the interests of Scotland and Wales, including in respect of financial aspects of the devolution settlement.
