	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/07/2014 answer text <p>A total of £33,045.55 was spent over two years on the Human Rights Council election campaign. This covered the cost of developing campaign materials and campaign events in Geneva, New York and London. The Human Rights Council election was designated as the priority election by the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my Rt. Hon. Friend the Member for Richmond (Yorks) (Mr Hague), in 2013.</p><p>Staff in London and across our network of diplomatic posts worked on the Human Rights Council campaign. It is therefore not possible to accurately quantify time costs.</p> answering member printed Baroness Warsi question first answered 01/07/2014 13:02:46 answering member 3839 label Biography information for Baroness Warsi
