We don't publish content on GOV.UK using a questions and answers format.

Why we prefer not to use FAQs

The reasons are:

  • FAQs are difficult for users to read
  • they do not perform well in search results
  • they make it difficult to locate information quickly
  • there is often duplicate content provided elsewhere on GOV.UK
  • it is often better to improve existing content

Event transcripts

The only exception is when we are required to publish the transcript of a question and answer event, for transparency reasons.

  • in this case, full details of the event would need to be provided
  • the information should also be accompanied by well-structured guidance
