Answer: Mr. Hinchliffe: To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what was the total Child Support Agency budget for (a) paper and (b) printing in each year of its operation.[24064] Mr. Mitchell: The administration of the Child Support Agency is a matter for the chief executive, Miss Ann Chant. She will write to the hon. Member. Letter from Miss Ann Chant to Mr. David Hinchliffe, dated 17 April 1996: I am replying to your Parliamentary Question to the Secretary of State for Social Security about paper and printing costs within the Child Support Agency. Individual costs for paper and printing are not readily obtainable as they both form part of a larger account entitled "Printing & Stationery", which includes printing, stationery and other miscellaneous stationery items. The total costs for "Printing & Stationery" for the three financial years since the launch of the Agency are as follows: 1993/94: £518,823 1994/95: £1,160,842 1995/96: £2,235,698 (subject to end of year adjustment) I hope this is helpful.
