The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the budget was for the Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority in each year since 2010.

Answered by Jess Phillips

Allocation of the Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority’s (GLAA) annual budget has been the responsibility of the Home Office since April 2014. Prior to this, the budget was held by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA). The Home Office does not have readily available access to information on total budgets covering the period of 2010-2014, when it was held by DEFRA.

Accordingly, the total GLAA budget in each financial year since its transfer to the Home Office in 2014 is presented in the following table:
