Departmental Cost Effectiveness

Mr. Laws
To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families if he will break down the proposed £350 million of savings from his Department and its non-departmental public bodies, as referred to on page 110 of the pre-Budget report, Cm 7747; and if he will make a statement.

Ms Diana R. Johnson
While we have yet to determine exactly how these additional savings will be delivered, we will be working across the Department and with our NDPBs to identify the most effective way to achieve them without damaging outcomes for children, young people and families yet to determine.
