Special Advisers: FDA

Asked by Charlie DewhirstConservativeCabinet OfficeTabled Answered 14 January 2025UIN 22193

The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many special advisers have affiliated to the First Division Association; and whether special advisers are a collective bargaining unit.

Answered by Georgia Gould

Details of Trade Union memberships are not held by Civil Service employers. I refer to PQ 5303, which confirmed that there are currently no collective bargaining agreements for Special Advisers.
