The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how much her Department has spent on branded goods and merchandise since the Government Chief Commercial Officer letter was sent.

Answered by Sarah Jones

Branded items are no longer available to purchase; and the Home Office Commercial team have introduced controls to prevent purchasing these items and reject any requests. We do not hold spend information for this category of spend.
