Department for Work and Pensions: Civil Servants

Asked by Sir Ashley FoxConservativeDepartment for Work and PensionsTabled Answered 23 October 2024UIN 9286

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many civil servants are assigned to work in each of her Department's offices; and how many desks are available in each office.

Answered by Andrew Western

DWP has over 800 sites where staff are assigned. Gathering and collating data on staffing numbers and desks from each site would incur disproportionate costs.
