Letter of correction from Mr. Nick Harvey:
An error has been identified in the answer given to the right hon. Member for Birkenhead (Mr. Field) on 8 March 2010. The original answer did not include bills received after the date for answer but before the answer was sent. It did not therefore fully reflect “the costs to date”.
The original answer was as follows: (319926)
The costs to date, inclusive of VAT, are as follows:
£ Sir Thomas Legg's review Work commissioned 870,784 Staff costs 306,534 Office supplies 5,889 Total 1,183,207 Sir Paul Kennedy's work Work commissioned 18,327 Travel 643 Office Supplies 180 Total 19,150
The correct answer should have been:
