There is no allocation within the public duties allowance for different categories of spend. It is for the former Prime Minister to submit receipts for payment within the annual allowance. The allowance is subject to audit, both by Internal Audit and the National Audit Office. Relevant supporting documentation is provided in support of claims.<\/p>

Since the 2010 General Election we have vacated over 1.5 million square metres of property across the country. The number of central administrative estate holdings within the 5 central London postcodes is currently 92, a reduction of over 50% since 2010. This reduction has generated significant savings, for example, we saved £60 million by selling a lease on Admiralty Arch.<\/p>
On 1 January 2014, 2.5% of the central administrative estate that is mandated to be on e-PIMS (electronic Property Information Management System) was vacant. This is well below the reported national average (private and public sector) of 10.2%. Figures for the London region indicate a vacancy rate of 1.8% at January 2013, which compares favourably with the average vacancy rate (private and public sector) for London of 7.2%.<\/p>
