Departmental Standards

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what estimate he has made of the cost to his Department of measuring compliance with its targets under its public service agreements in the last 12 months for which figures are available.
Answer

Measuring progress on public service agreement targets is an intrinsic part of driving delivery of those targets. The only additional cost of measuring compliance with the targets comes from reporting delivery progress to Parliament, for which I refer the hon. Member to my answer to PQ 266695.
