Wilson: 350,000 reasons why Copenhagen was a mistake

Sammy Wilson has asked the Secretary of State for Climate Change how much it cost to send his ministers and officials to the Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, and was disappointed to learn that the expensive jamboree is estimated to have cost £350,000.

The East Antrim representative said:

“The total cost of sending 38 people to Copenhagen was £350,000. This figure includes office space rent though why they needed to rent office space I have no idea. Nevertheless, three questions need to be asked of the Government. First, what was the justification for sending 38 people to Copenhagen? Second, why did this cost £350,000 (nearly £10,000 each) and finally – was it worth it?
