Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, if he will estimate how much his Department spent has spent in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly in each year since 2007-08.

Answer

The Department’s electronic record system does not categorise expenditure by area. To provide this information would therefore require a manual trawl of all payments made between 2007-08 and 2014-15, which could only be provided at disproportionate cost.

The Department publishes monthly information on all payments over £500. This information can be found at the following website:
