Special Advisers: Equal Pay
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what estimate he has made of the (a) mean and (b) median gender pay gap for special advisers in pay bands (i) 1, (ii) 2, (iii) 3 and (iv) 4.
Answered by Georgia Gould
The gender pay gap for special advisers is published annually in the Cabinet Office’s Gender Pay Gap Report. The latest published report is for 2023 and is available on gov.uk; the mean pay gap was 4.62%, and the median pay gap was 10.89%.
This was not broken down by pay band, due to the small numbers of individuals in each pay band.
