Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office: Termination of Employment
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, how many and what proportion of staff in her Department left employment in the last 12 months following formal (a) performance and (b) capability procedures.
Answered by Seema Malhotra
The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office's total staff headcount is approximately 17,500 employees, working in hundreds of different locations around the world, many with locally-managed HR arrangements and procedures. The requested information could therefore only be collated and verified for the purposes of answering this question at disproportionate cost.
