To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what percentage of his Department's expenditure was on advertising in each of the last 10 years. (183004)

In 2006-07 my Department spent £17,240 on advertising for a new Head of Communication, just under 0.3 per cent. of total Wales Office expenditure that year. The Wales Office has incurred no other expenditure on advertising in the period of nearly nine years since it was created.
