Treasury: Staff
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether her Department has a target for the number of staff it plans to employ over the period of the Spending Review.
Answered by James Murray
The Department’s SR settlement of a 10% real terms reduction to admin budgets by 2028-29 means HM Treasury will need to get smaller, necessitating a reduction in resource in some areas. Headcount reductions will be subject to future business planning where the department will take decisions on how the savings will be delivered.
