The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, pursuant to the Answer of 4 June 2026 to Question 4161, on Government departments: marketing, how much has been spent on branded goods and merchandise by each of the department's Arm’s Length Bodies since the Government Chief Commercial Officer letter was sent; on what items, and at what cost.

Answered by Department for Energy Security and Net Zero

The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero does not hold the requested information in a form that can be extracted without incurring disproportionate cost. Providing the information would require extensive manual analysis of records and could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.
