Baroness Sugg
It is not part of this contract. I believe that the cost is around £1.5 million. I will have to get back to the noble Lord with the exact details of who will pay for it.
Lord Harris of Haringey (Lab)
My Lords, can the Minister give us a clear statement that there are no financial connections between Seaborne Freight and close family members of any Minister?
Baroness Sugg
I can certainly reassure the noble Lord that I am not aware of any such connection. This contract has been brought about to try to facilitate the easing of trade should we be in a no-deal scenario. There is certainly no ulterior motive to it.
