Treasury: Parliamentary Commissioner for Administration

Asked by Andrew GwynneIndependentTreasuryTabled Answered 1 July 2025UIN 61772

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many times their Department has accepted in full the position of the Parliamentary Ombudsman’s (a) findings and (b) recommendations on (i) issuing an apology and (ii) other forms of redress in the last 10 years.

Answered by Darren Jones

We have looked at the compliance data we hold regarding parliamentary organisations (from 2020/21 onwards) and there are no compliance items listing HM Treasury as a named organisation. The PHSO hasn’t Upheld or Partly Upheld an investigation into HM Treasury in the last 10 years.
