To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many Arm's-Length Bodies there were (a) on 4 July 2024 and (b) as of 5 March 2025; and how many of the latter have an annual operating expenditure in excess of £5 million.
This question was answered on 10th March 2025
On 4th July 2024, there were 307 Arm’s-Length Bodies. Of these, 135 had an annual operating expenditure (RDEL spend) in excess of £5 million in FY23/24.
The Cabinet Office commissions data around six months after the end of each financial year to allow for financial statements of each ALB to be finalised, meaning we will start collecting data for March 2025 later in 2025.
