Question to the Attorney General:
To ask the Attorney General, what subscriptions to (a) newspapers, (b) magazines and (c) online journals her Department has paid for in each of the last three financial years.
The Attorney General’s Office’s (AGO) paid subscriptions to newspapers, magazines, and online journals provide AGO officials with a valuable resource of public discourse on topics relevant to the Department.
The AGO’s paid subscriptions for the last three financial years are set out in the table below.
| 2021/22 | 2022/23 | 2023/24 |
Newspapers | Financial Times; Telegraph | Financial Times; Telegraph | Financial Times; Sunday Times; Telegraph |
Magazines | Critic Magazine; Counsel Magazine | Counsel Magazine | Counsel Magazine |
Online journals | N/A | Thomson Reuters; Joshua Rozenberg | Thomson Reuters; Joshua Rozenberg |
Please note that I am responding on behalf of the AGO only, and not the departments superintended by the Attorney General and I (the Crown Prosecution Service, HM Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate, Government Legal Department, and Serious Fraud Office).
