Civil Servants: Disciplinary Proceedings

Asked by Nick TimothyConservativeCabinet OfficeTabled Answered 24 December 2024UIN 19479

The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many civil servants have been suspended due to allegations of misconduct since in each year since 2020.

Answered by Georgia Gould

Decisions to suspend an employee are delegated to individual departments. Data on the number of civil servants who have been suspended due to allegations of misconduct are therefore not held centrally.

Civil Service statistics on the composition of the Civil Service workforce, including data on those leaving the Civil Service due to dismissals, are available on GOV.UK.
