Answered by Heidi Alexander

The spend in 2023/24 for the Ministry of Justice’s Core Communications team 2023/24 was £8,903,437. This spend covers the staff and non-staff costs for internal communications, strategic communications, campaigns, marketing, external affairs, insight & evaluation, digital communications and our press office. It is worth noting that 2023/24 accounts are still to be audited, so may be subject to change.
