Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence (1) if he will place in the Library copies of the (a) operating cost statement, (b) balance sheet, (c) statement of recognised gains and losses, (d) cash flow statement and (e) fixed asset register for each of Air Command's basic level budget groups for financial years 2010-11 to 2012-13;

Answer

Air Command is not required to produce financial records in the format requested at Basic Level Budget level.

However, I am placing in the Library of the House operating cost statements and balance sheets for the Air Command Top Level Budget for financial years (FY) 2010-11, 2011-12 and 2012-13 and the Statement of Changes in Taxpayers' Equity (this expanded set of information replaced the statement of recognised gains and losses in 2009-10) and cash flow statements for the Air Command Top Level Budget for FY 2010-11 and 2012-13. The Statement of Changes in Taxpayers' Equity and cashflow statements were not produced for Top Level Budgets for FY2011-12 across the Department.

The fixed asset register could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
