answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/03/2015 answer text The EU Court of Auditors estimates that a move to a “single seat” for the European Parliament would save €113 million a year, while the European Parliament’s own “Single Seat” campaign estimates the saving at about €180 million a year, and a reduction of the EP’s carbon footprint by 40%. The UK welcomes the support from within the European Parliament for the move to a single seat and hopes that Members of the European Parliament push this issue up the political agenda. The UK’s position is well known: we are in favour of a single seat. The current arrangements are expensive, impractical and indefensible on environmental grounds. Moving to a single seat would require Treaty change and the agreement of all Member States. answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 24/03/2015 14:53:59 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington
