I regret to inform the House that there was an inaccuracy in the answer given by the then Under-Secretary of State for Transport, my hon. Friend the Member for Wimbledon (Stephen Hammond) to parliamentary question 195584 on 10 April 2014, Official Report, column 338W, about spend on consultancy services by the Department for Transport. Unfortunately there were coding errors in the classification of the spend data used to identify consultancy services, resulting in Thompsons Solicitors being named as a consultant. They do not provide consultancy services to the Department. Corrections have been made to the coding and the table supplied should now read:
