To ask the Assembly Commission whether any unused ink cartridges will be reimbursed to office cost allowances when printers in constituency offices and MLA offices in Parliament Buildings are replaced.

When printers in constituency offices and MLA offices in Parliament Buildings are replaced, Members will be able to return unopened and unused ink cartridges purchased from the Northern Ireland Assembly Commission supplier only. Please note that ink cartridges acceptable for return must have been purchased within 12 months preceding the date on which the printer was replaced. The stock value will then be reimbursed to the Member’s office cost allowance.
