Reasons for this include measures taken to ban lunches, teas and coffees for internal meetings. Any such refreshments for meetings with external stakeholders are only provided in exceptional circumstances and require sign off from a Director General. No alcohol is provided for staff from departmental funds and when hospitality is provided to external parties, such as a modest amount of wine with a meal, this requires Director General level approval. The department has also put in place a block on Government Procurement Cards, preventing payments to bars and restaurants.</p><p /> <p /><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="3"><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong>MoJ core and Agency spend on Hospitality and related catering since April 2008:</strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial">MoJ HQ</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">Nac Level 6</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY08/09</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY09/10</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY10/11</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY11/12</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY12/13</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY13/14</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY14/15 to end Oct-14</ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">224226-Entertainment</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">3,773.76</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">0.00</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">585.29</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">327.90</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">326.40</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">60.00</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">252.52</ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">224227-Hospitality</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">18,572.77</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">18,755.64</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">6,584.20</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">3,095.97</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2,893.31</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">1,312.56</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">745.45</ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">224228-External Lunches &amp;
