Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, whether he has any plans to increase the number of replies within his Department's working day standard; and if he will make a statement.
The target for replying to correspondence is 80% in 15 working days - we aim to meet or exceed that target.
Cabinet Office guidance on correspondence handling states that individual Departments' targets for routine correspondence from MPs should be a maximum of 20 working days.
