The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has made no payments directly to the Chartered Institute of Public Relations in the last three years.The Department is, however, unable to identify from central records how many subscription or membership fees have been paid to professional organisations. Most subscriptions and memberships are paid direct by staff from their own resources and claimed, authorised and paid through the staff expenses system. To identify the number would incur additional analysis of all expense transactions and this would incur disproportionate cost.Executive agenciesCentre for Environment Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS)The numbers of subscription and membership fees paid is as follows:

The Department of Energy and Climate (DECC) has not taken out any subscriptions or memberships with the Chartered Institute of Public Relations over the last three years.DECC records expenditure on subscriptions and membership fees but does not specifically collect data on the number of subscriptions and memberships held. It would incur disproportionate costs to investigate all payments to determine how many individual fees and subscriptions were paid for. Membership fees and subscriptions are taken out for a number of reasons. DECC pays membership fees to secure UK representation on eight international energy and climate change bodies. Where staff hold or are training for professional qualifications they are required to subscribe to professional institutes, for example accountants, lawyers, economists. DECC also takes out subscriptions to access a wide range of printed and electronic data required to deliver the Department's objectives.
