The Benefits Agency (BA) has two national newsletters produced for staff, "BA Weekly" and "BA News". The "BA Weekly" has been produced every week since the Agency was established in April 1991. "BA News" is produced monthly. It was first produced in 1991 and is intended to reach all staff in the BA.

The Child Support Agency (CSA) has two national newsletters produced for staff. "The Weekly" has been produced every week since the Agency was established in April 1993. "The Outlook" is produced monthly and was first produced in autumn 1996.

There are no security classifications on either the BA or CSA publications.
