To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government how much has been spent on the FireControl project; and what further expenditure is expected until the time when all regional fire control centres become operational.

Mr. Khan
£139 million has been spent to date on FiReControl. The total project cost for FiReControl is expected to be £380 million. A significant proportion of the remaining expenditure is already committed through agreed contractual costs. Full details of the contract costs are set out in the FiReControl business case, a copy of which is available in the Library of the House.
