To ask the Secretary of State for Justice on what date (a) his Department and (b) each of its agencies last updated their euro changeover plans; and if he will place in the Library a copy of the most recent version of each. (211115)

The former DCA had a detailed Euro Changeover Plan in place by the end of 2004, as requested by HM Treasury. The plan was reviewed regularly, with the latest Highlight Report dated March 2006. This plan covered the following areas:

DCA Corporate HQ

Courts Service

Court Funds Office

Information Commissioners Office

Judge Advocate General

Judicial Studies Board

Law Commission

Legal Services Commission

Legal Services Ombudsman

Official Solicitor and Public Trustee

Public Guardianship Office

Scotland Office

Tribunals Directorate (separate Agency from April 2006)

Wales Office

Land Registry.

There are no plans at present to place a copy in the Library.

The prisons and probation services and the Office for Criminal Justice Reform were included in the Home Office plan. My right hon. Friend the Home Secretary will be responding to the question in respect of the Home Office.
