Answer

I am advised that any expenses associated with participation in the Assurance and Risk Committee meetings are met directly by Customs. For the Ministerial Advisory Group on Transnational, Serious and Organised Crime, any expenses associated with participation on the Advisory Group were paid or reimbursed by the Group’s secretariat. No payments were made directly to Committee members.
