PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Department for Business and Trade: Press (27 February 2024)

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what subscriptions to (a) newspapers, (b) magazines and (c) online journals her Department and its predecessor Department has paid for in each of the last three financial years.

Asked by:
Pat McFadden (Labour)

The Department for Business and Trade has centrally managed subscriptions for the Economist and the Financial Times for financial years 2022/23 and 2023/24. Information on locally sourced and managed subscriptions is not routinely collected and to make it available could only be done at a disproportionate cost.
