House of Commons written answer Q124133, published 13 Apr 2026, says the Jalal Uddin Inquiry reported on 10 Jul 2025, is now closed, and its costs are £1,095,614. The question asks for total public cost to date. The answer does not state an accounting start/end cutoff or breakdown, so both accounting dates and all category fields are NULL. Source publication date is not used as an accounting cutoff. This is a reported to-date amount, not a claim of final settled expenditure.
