Central Office of Information

Introduction

  1.  The Estimate covers the Central Advisory Service for publicity advice provided centrally.

  3.  The provision sought for 2002-03 is below the final net provision and forecast outturn for 2001-02, reflecting the ending of a two year funding of management training previously obtained from the Civil Service Modernisation fund.

  4.  Symbols are explained in the Introduction to this booklet.
