The Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice (Mr Kenneth Clarke)
Subject to parliamentary approval of any necessary supplementary estimate, the Ministry of Justice (MOJ) and The National Archives (TNA) and the UK Supreme Court (UKSC) total departmental expenditure Limit (DEL) will be increased as follows:
Total DEL for MOJ (request for resource 1, 2 and 3) is increased by £95,593,000 from £9,099,706,000 to £9,195,299,000 and the administration budget has increased by £61,577,000 from £416,230,000 to £477,807,000.
Total DEL for the TNA will be decreased by £155,000 from £39,272,000 to £39,117,000.
Total DEL for the UKSC will be increased by a token £1,000.
Within the total DEL change for MOJ (request for resource 1, 2 and 3), the impact on resource and capital are as set out in the following table:
Change | New DEL | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Voted | Non-voted | Voted | Non-voted | Total | |
Resource DEL | (78,327) | 161,103 | 5,672,950 | 3,343,099 | 9,016,049 |
Of which: | |||||
Administration* | 61,577 | - | 477,265 | 542 | 477,807 |
Capital DEL** | (2,585) | 1,612 | 550,340 | 43,017 | 593,357 |
Depreciation*** | 14,163 | (373) | (400,816) | (13,291) | (414,107) |
Total DEL | (66,749) | 162,342 | 5,822,474 | 3,372,825 | 9,195,299 |
*The total of administration budget and “near-cash in resource DEL” figures may well be greater than total resource DEL, due to the definitions overlapping. **Capital DEL includes items treated as resource in Estimates and accounts but which are treated as capital DEL in budgets. ***Depreciation, which forms part of resource DEL, is excluded from the total DEL since capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting. |
