answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/11/2015 answer text <p>As recommended by the Treasury, Departments are encouraged to maintain a reserve. The Wales Office maintains a reserve of around 5% of its annual Departmental Expenditure Limit (DEL), which represents our forecast underspend. This underspend can increase or decrease if planned expenditure is higher or lower than expected. In 2015-16, our DEL is £4.432m which includes the Departmental reserve of £0.222m. Our forecast of Annually Managed Expenditure (AME) is £-0.020m.</p><br /> <br /><p>The reserve stated above was also our forecast underspend at the time of the summer budget in 2015. The Department does not forecast underspends for the following financial year at the March budget. Each March, the Wales Office focuses on completing the financial transactions and processes of that current financial year.</p> answering member constituency Vale of Glamorgan answering member printed Alun Cairns question first answered 23/11/2015 13:17:02 answering member 4086 label Biography information for Alun Cairns
