Parliamentary Written Question (Correction)

Brandon Lewis Excerpts

Monday 19th November 2012 Written Statements

[The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government (Brandon Lewis)]

I wish to clarify a point on methodology used in an answer to a parliamentary question, made in the last Session.

In the answer of 24 October 2011, Official Report, column 59W given by my hon. Friend the Member for Bromley and Chislehurst (Robert Neill), the figure given for the average cost of processing the payment of an invoice, based on data for the last 12 months, was £2.62.

For clarity, this figure does not include staff costs.
