Public Appointments: Vetting
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many times the assessments made by UKSV arising from the developed vetting of individuals proposed for public appointments since the enactment of the Constitutional Reform and Governance Act 2010 come into force.
Answered by Dan Jarvis
UKSV does not centrally categorise individuals by their specific terms of appointment, such as whether they are a public appointee.
In line with the practice followed by successive administrations, the Government does not otherwise comment on security matters, including providing granular data on the volumes of specific clearance types.
