The information requested is available in the Library of the House. Weekly newspapers and tabloid-format periodicals that have the appearance of newspapers have been classed as "periodicals" and included in the list available in the Library of the House. The information relates solely to central procurement in the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister Central. Information for the executive agencies, Non-departmental public bodies (NDPBs) and the Government offices is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
