answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/01/2018 answer text <p>We are unable to provide purchasing data prior to 2017. In 2017 DFID London purchased approximately 4,300 ‘Vegware’ cups every month. Made from plant material – not plastic – these cups are organic, compostable and can be recycled with the food waste. In 2017 DFID Scotland took delivery of approximately 3,000 card and plastic cups. There are schemes in both DFID offices to encourage use of reusable coffee cups, with 10% off the price of a coffee when staff use their own cup. In DFID Scotland reusable cups are available for purchase, with the aim of bringing down the number of disposable coffee cups used.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 26/01/2018 12:44:09 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin
