Dear Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade,
In light of today's (1/10/24) diplomatic appointments, I request a comparison figure showing the cost-saving achieved by your ministry following the coalition government's directive to save costs. Specifically, I'm looking for a percentage figure showing the change in Ministry of Foreign Affairs' spending since 1/3/24.
Yours faithfully,
Jack Tallott
