Conditions of Employment
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment he has made of the regional impact of having no workforce representation in any English region outside London and the South East.
Answered by Seema Malhotra
The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office operates out of three locations in the UK; King Charles Street in London, Hanslope Park in Milton Keynes and Abercrombie House in East Kilbride. We are committed to the Government's Places for Growth 2030 strategy to move more roles outside of London and the Government's Plan for London to streamline and make savings across the London estate. We continue to make a positive impact to the East Kilbride and Greater Glasgow region as one of the larger Civil Service Departments in Scotland.
