Expenses are published on a quarterly basis in a cumulative annual file.

Breakdown of hospitality received and given

We retain a register of hospitality received. Our Chair, members and senior officers have reported receiving no hospitality in the past financial year by virtue of their roles in the organisation.

From time to time, our Chair and the Chief Executive may embark on a planned series of working dinners to provide the opportunity to meet with persons responsible of all clinics throughout the country. These dinners have several purposes:

• they enable a better working relationship between clinics and the HFEA
• they help communicate changes that will, or may, be introduced
• they provide an opportunity to gather informal feedback which can help to improve  policy, processes and regulation and.

On average, each dinner may cost £300 for between 6 - 8 people, including the Chair and Chief Executive.
