The amounts spent by the department on air travel in total for the requested financial years are shown below. The department does not have the split for ministers and officials readily available. These are the full amounts for both ministers and officials:

  • 2019/20: £296,227
  • 2020/21: £40,166
  • 2021/22: £38,294

The department always strives to keep costs as low as possible and to get the best out of available funds.
