Government Departments: Consultants
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what the average daily rate of pay is for consultants working across Whitehall Departments.
Answered by Georgia Gould
This information is not held by the Cabinet Office.
Pay for consultants is managed by each department individually, as they are accountable for their own consultancy pay details. Average rates may differ due to the type of consultancy and commercial structure around individual customer contracts. The Government is committed to stopping all non-essential expenditure on consultants, and reducing the reliance on contingent labour.
