Civil Servants: Public Appointments
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether he plans to set targets for the number of civil servants appointed based on their socio-economic background.
Answered by Anna Turley
As set out in the Civil Service People Plan 2024-2027, we are committed to ensuring we attract, develop and retain talented people from a diverse range of backgrounds to create a modern Civil Service, now and for the future. There are no plans to set targets for the recruitment of civil servants based on their socio-economic background.
