The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether the Office for Value for Money has made an assessment of the use of non-scheduled flights for foreign travel.

Answered by Darren Jones

The Office for Value for Money has an immediate focus on supporting value for money decisions surrounding the spending review, including developing efficiency targets and plans, scrutinising investment proposals and conducting VfM studies. It will also recommend system reforms. Non-scheduled flights for foreign travel do not currently fall within the remit of the OVfM.
