The cost of redaction

It may be a new word to most of us but the Western Mail has now learned that the House of Commons spent more than £450,000 on redacting those MPs’ expense claim forms.

The £451,966 of public money spent on redacting the information before publication only includes costs until the end of March, with the final figure likely to be higher.

Who knew that black ink was so expensive?
