To ask the Prime Minister what income was received from the use of No. 10 Downing street for non-official functions in the last three financial years.

The costs of catering staff and other expenses are met directly by the organisers of such events. No charge is made for the use of 10 Downing street.

To ask the Prime Minister if he will list the non-official or party receptions or functions at 10 Downing street during the coming 12 months for which permission has been given.

I am not prepared to give advance notice of functions at 10 Downing street, whether official or non-official.
