answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/05/2022 answer text <p>We announced our decision to cancel Safe To Be Me: A Global Equality Conference on 6 April 2022. As stated in the answer of 26 April 2022 to Question 155906, expenditure to that point, and due to the cancellation, is estimated to be between £0.41 million and £0.61 million. We are still working with suppliers to reconcile costs for work that had not been undertaken at the time of cancellation. Therefore as of 18 May 2022, we estimate the costs to be as set out in the table below.<strong> </strong></p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Category of spend</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Cost (including VAT)</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Description</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Venue</p></td><td><p>£200,000</p></td><td><p>The Government is liable to pay a cancellation charge as stated in the contract.</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Production</p></td><td><p>£365,000</p></td><td><p>Already incurred production costs.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>We are currently exploring whether VAT can be recovered on any of these costs.
