Department for Transport: Public Relations

Asked by Mr Richard HoldenConservativeDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 8 September 2026UIN 21979

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 21 July 2026 to Question 16600 on Department for Transport: Public Relations, if she will place in the Library a copy of each live public relations contract held by the Department and its arm's length bodies; and, with reference to paragraph 234 of the Government's Guide To Parliamentary Work, if she will provide the direct Contracts Finder or Find a Tender hyperlink for each such contract.

Answered by Department for Transport

Given the commercial sensitivity of contracting with suppliers, we do not routinely publish contracts in the House of Commons Library. However, high level information on the purpose and value of contracts awarded by the Department and its arm’s length bodies, above the relevant thresholds, are found on the Government’s Contracts Finder/Find a Tender service.
