Written question asked by Jon Trickett (Labour) on Monday, 17 October 2022, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 19 October 2022. It was answered by Felicity Buchan (Conservative) on Tuesday, 25 October 2022 on behalf of the Treasury.


Treasury: Taxis

Question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how much his Department spent on taxi cabs for (a) ministers and (b) civil servants in each of the last three years.

Answer

HM Treasury’s taxi cabs spend for 2019-20 to 2021-22 can be found in the table below

Financial Year

Spend

2019/20

£81,250.84

2020/21

£29,276.24

2021/22

£42,529.55

The provision of our taxi contract does not differentiate between ministers and officials, so we do not have that level of detail.

Taxis are defined as a car available with a driver for hire, including a minicab.
