Home Department written question – answered at on 10 May 2011.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how much her Department spent on newspapers and periodicals in each of the last three years.
The Home Office HQ purchases all newspapers, periodicals and trade profession journals via a framework agreement. Expenditure for the last three years is shown in the following tables. It should be noted that occasionally business areas purchase individual copies of particular newspapers or magazines to meet urgent business needs. These are funded from devolved budgets for which figures are not available, and they are therefore not included.
