Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how much funding his Department has (a) budgeted for and (b) spent on advertising in each of the last three financial years.

Determining the amount allocated for and spent by the Home Office on advertising specifically is not readily available from our finance system.

To try to identify the information under scope would require a manual review of multiple expenditure categories and transactions, over three financial years.

This could only be done at disproportionate cost.
