Volume 492: debated on Thursday 14 May 2009

To ask the Minister for the Olympics how much (a) her Office and (b) the Government Olympic Executive spent on the purchase of (i) recycled office supplies in the last 12 months and (ii) printer ink cartridges in each year since her Office was established. (274573)

My Office has been part of the Cabinet Office since July 2007, while the Government Olympic Executive (GOE) is part of the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS).

The Cabinet Office and the DCMS purchase recycled office supplies and printer ink cartridges in bulk, and it is not possible to apportion costs for my Office and for the GOE respectively.

The Cabinet Office cost and DCMS costs will be outlined in the answers provided by the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport respectively.
