Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what breakdown, by Department, of Government spending on contingencies for the UK leaving the EU he plans to include in the Budget red book.

Departments are preparing for a range of scenarios. To support these preparations, the Treasury has committed over £250m of additional spending in 2017-18 from the Reserve. Departmental allocations from the Reserve will be set out at Supplementary Estimates in the usual way.
