Senior Civil Servants: Pay
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will publish a list of all senior service posts forecast to earn above £200,000 in financial year 2025-2026.
Answered by Georgia Gould
The Cabinet Office does not make forecasts of the earnings of individuals. Civil Service Statistics (Table 35) provides information on the number of civil servants earning over £200,000 and in other bandings. The latest information can be found here:

The Cabinet Office also publishes an annual ‘high earner’ list of named senior civil servants and senior officials in departments, agencies and non-departmental public bodies. The most recently published information can be found here:

The previous administration did not update this list prior to the General Election. The Cabinet Office will publish a new 2025 list in due course.
