The following NDPBs and other bodies have reported that they have incurred no expenditure with public relations agencies in the period in question:

The Disability Rights Commission, which was referred to in the March 2006 question, was dissolved from September 2007 and its paper and electronic records have been archived. The Department would incur disproportionate cost in accessing these records to obtain the required information.
