Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: Disciplinary Proceedings

Asked by Neil O'BrienConservativeMinistry of Housing, Communities and Local GovernmentTabled Answered 23 December 2025UIN 100474

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many disciplinary cases were concluded against civil servants in (a) his Department and (b) his Department's agencies broken down by (i) outcome and (ii) whether the primary allegation related to (A) performance and (B) conduct in the last twelve months.

Answered by Samantha Dixon

The department is not responsible for collecting or maintaining data on disciplinary action for staff in its executive agencies. We do hold information on concluded disciplinary cases within the core department; however, producing the requested information for both the core department and its executive agencies, and in the format specified, would incur disproportionate time and cost.
