Ministry of Justice: spending & suppliers

Ministry of Justice has £5,930,023,122 of tracked procurement spend across 31,917 published payments to 3,839 suppliers, from Jan 2025 to Dec 2025.

Excludes £3,997,922 paid to other public bodies as funding rather than for goods or services — grant-in-aid and similar. Those payments are held in full and shown in the underlying data, but counting them as procurement would overstate what Ministry of Justice actually buys.

Amounts follow each publisher’s own basis — some publish figures including VAT, others excluding it — so totals are not directly comparable between buyers.
