Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: Buildings

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what the (a) location is and (b) running costs are for each building used by his Department.

Answer

Please see the attached spreadsheet, which details the information requested.

This has been interpreted to be Core Defra occupations only, excluding its Executive Agencies & the Non-Departmental Public Bodies (NDPB’s). Where buildings are part occupied, only the Core Defra proportion of total gross site costs are included.

We have reduced the number of buildings occupied by Core Defra from 29 to 26 since 2010. Running costs have fallen by a quarter, from £35,525,000 to £26,793,000 over the same period.
