Corruption<br />
Mr. Djanogly: To ask the Secretary of State for<br />
Justice on what date he expects to publish his<br />
Department’s anti-corruption plan for 2009. [295076]<br />
Mr. Straw: The publication of a Foreign Bribery<br />
Strategy is expected before the end of the year.<br />
Departmental Electronic Equipment<br />
Mr. Philip Hammond: To ask the Secretary of State<br />
for Justice pursuant to the answer of 30 March 2009,<br />
Official Report, column 991W, on departmental electronic<br />
equipment, how much (a) his Department and (b) its<br />
agencies have spent on (i) flat screen televisions, (ii)<br />
DVD players and (iii) stereo equipment in the last three<br />
months. [289172]<br />
Mr. Wills: During the period in question, the Ministry<br />
had one main supplier for the provision of flat screen<br />
televisions, DVD players and stereo equipment. The<br />
contract for this supplier has been in place since October<br />
2008. Prior to this, there had been one main supplier for<br />
such goods for NOMS but this contract was not open<br />
to the wider MOJ for use. Since November 2008, the<br />
expenditure on these items with the current main supplier<br />
by the Ministry is as follows:<br />
Flat Screen Televisions 139,676<br />
DVD Players and Recorders 11,358<br />
Stereo Equipment 3,648<br />
Total 154,682<br />
This contract is available to MoJ headquarters and<br />
its executive agencies (HM Courts Service, Tribunals<br />
Service, the Office of The Public Guardian, and the<br />
National Offender Management Service). The figure<br />
may, however, be incomplete as some equipment may<br />
have been purchased outside of the contract using the<br />
£<br />
Government Procurement Card (GPC). To investigate<br />
whether any flat screen televisions, DVD players or<br />
stereo equipment had been purchased with the GPC<br />
card would incur disproportionate cost.<br />
Mr. Grieve: To ask the Secretary of State for Justice<br />
pursuant to the answer to the hon. Member for Runnymede<br />
and Weybridge (Mr. Hammond) of 30 March 2009,<br />
Official Report, columns 993-95W, on departmental<br />
electronic equipment, how much his Department, its<br />
predecessor and its agencies spent on (a) flat screen<br />
televisions, (b) DVD players and (c) stereo equipment<br />
in the 2008-09 financial year. [279239]<br />
Mr. Straw: In 2008-09 the Department and its agencies<br />
spent the following amounts (excluding VAT):<br />
Flat screen televisions 159,138<br />
DVD players 10,904<br />
Stereo equipment 21,853<br />
Total 191,895<br />
These figures exclude HM Courts Service, where the<br />
information could not be obtained without disproportionate<br />
cost.<br />
The significant increase in HQ expenditure in 2008-09<br />
is a result of the refurbishment of the new consolidated<br />
building in 102 Petty France which has itself enabled<br />
£10 million savings as part of the MoJ Estates Strategy.<br />
The whole building was gutted, and re-fitted. In addition<br />
this is the first year that full information on these items<br />
has been available for NOMS expenditure.<br />
In collating the information to this response it has<br />
been brought to my attention that there were factual<br />
errors in the answer to the hon. Member for Runnymede<br />
and Weybridge (Mr. Hammond) on 30 March 2009,<br />
Official Report, columns 994-96W.<br />
