Determining the amount allocated for and spent by the Home Office on magazine subscriptions is not readily available from our finance system.

The Home Office does not have expenditure categories in our financial system that would allow us to quickly identify spending at this level of granularity.

To try to identify the information under scope would require a manual review of multiple expenditures categories and transactions, over multiple business areas.

This could only be done at disproportionate cost.
