Mr Johnson's spokesman said the Cabinet Office had had "access to this material for several months" and he would disclose it directly to the inquiry if asked.
"While Mr Johnson understands the government's position, and does not seek to contradict it, he is perfectly happy for the inquiry to have access to this material in whatever form it requires," he added.
Mr Johnson is among those who will give evidence to the inquiry, which is due to start hearings in two weeks.
The material includes 24 notebooks with contemporaneous notes, as well as his diaries and WhatsApp messages between Mr Johnson and cabinet ministers, advisors and senior civil servants.
On Tuesday, the inquiry revealed it had been told the Cabinet Office did not currently have the WhatsApp messages or notebooks in its possession.
