Answered by Ministry of Justice

Information is released in regular transparency returns by the Department.

Without targeted campaigns, millions of citizens would miss out on services, rights, and support to which they are entitled.

Campaigns across government have included the NHS Fit for the Future campaign which directly benefits patients by informing them how, where, and when to access transformed health services. The Defence investment campaign also generates thousands of skilled jobs and millions in regional economic growth through awareness.
