The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) does not maintain a formal record of the time spent by DCMS Ministers in the department's offices. Ministers' diaries are managed by their individual Private Offices and while Private Office staff do hold information within ministerial diaries, this information is not quantified for record-keeping purposes. It is also the case that the department does not routinely release information relating to the operation of ministerial Private Offices.
