Departmental spend on taxi cabs for Ministers has been recorded as £92.30 for 2021 and £50.40 for 2022. There was no recorded spend for 2020.

Information regarding spend on taxi cabs for civil servants is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost. The current civil travel expense system does not have a specific category for taxi claims and cannot be distinguished from any other mode of public transport.
