Media enquiries


The Cabinet Office media team handles enquiries from journalists and recognised media organisations about Cabinet Office business, policy, announcements and ministerial activity.

When making a media enquiry, give the name of your organisation, the subject of the enquiry, your deadline and a reliable contact method. This helps the department route the enquiry to the appropriate press officer.

The media route is not for service casework, complaints, Freedom of Information requests, subject access requests, procurement enquiries, Civil Service job applications, public appointment applications or ministerial expressions of interest. Use the relevant published service or corporate route for those matters.

Urgent out-of-hours arrangements are used only where there is a genuine operational or communications need.
