The Department for Exiting the European Union will publish the information on contracts over £10,000 as part of transparency data releases in due course. The Department has not made an estimate of the value of pro bono costs. Additionally the Department, wherever possible, seeks to award contracts on an outcome basis and pays for deliverables rather than by contractor days. Note that the Department only came into existence in 2016.
