Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
The University of Sydney doesn't purchase paper directly but is included as part of its printing contract. The expenditure listed here is reported by our contracted printing support supplier, CSG. CSG confirmed that all office related paper provided to the University is FSC Mix label. Expenditure is based on the price-per-sheet the University pays. This differs depending on paper size and if B&W or colour printing is selected.
