To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, with reference to page 95 of the Ministry of Justice Annual Report and Accounts 2022-23, how his Department calculated the total salary and fees for the Member for Great Yarmouth for the period in which he was Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice between 6 September and 24 October 2022.

Total salary and fees disclosed in the Remuneration Report are based on gross salary information in line with HMT financial reporting guidance. Upon review it has been noted that the information disclosed for the Member for Great Yarmouth was overstated as it did not reflect an additional correction from the payroll records. The correct gross salary was £9,043 and the net pay received by the Member for Great Yarmouth was based on the reduced amount.
