Taxis
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for International Development how much his Department spent on taxi fares in each year since 1997.
- Answer
-
The Department for International Development (DFID) spent the following on taxi fares since financial year 2002-03. Figures prior to 2002-03 cannot be provided without incurring disproportionate cost.
Financial year £ 2009-10 255,479 2008-09 ¹100,534 2007-08 195,483 2006-07 243,363 2005-06 328.383 2004-05 243,300 2003-04 143,447 2002-03 105,908 ¹ In 2008-09, DFID moved to a new financial management system. We suspect that duplicate entries exist in the two systems in this year. To determine which amounts have been entered into both systems, and the total amount paid in reimbursements would incur disproportionate cost. All expenditure is incurred in accordance with the principles of Managing Public Money and the Treasury handbook on Regularity and Propriety.
