The Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury (Robert Jenrick)
HM Treasury will incur new expenditure in connection with a legal settlement in 2019-20.
Parliamentary approval for additional resources of £84,200,000 for this new expenditure will be sought in a supplementary estimate for HM Treasury. Pending that approval, urgent expenditure estimated at £84,200,000 will be met by repayable cash advances from the Contingencies Fund.
