Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, for what reasons the information provided in the Answer of 29 January 2018 to Question 123995 on Compass was not provided in the same detail as the information provided in the Answer of 2 March 2016 to Question 28212.

The Home Office follows the Governments transparency agenda and publishes all spend with suppliers on the GOV.UK website where it exceeds £25,000 in a month. The deductions of Service Credits are considered to be commercially confidential and as such the Home Office does not publish this information and that is why the approach between 2016 and 2018 has changed.
