Officials in my Department currently use or have used in the past 18 months the software referred to in the Deputies question for official internal communications. I can confirm that accounts with both services were created on my behalf, to facilitate Green Party rather than Departmental business. The use of one of the specified services pre-dates my appointment as Minister, and I have not used the application for any Department or Government business since my appointment. I can also confirm advisors have used these services for Green Party business.
