Written Question
Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: Personnel Management
Thursday 10th September 2020

Asked by: John Stevenson (Conservative - Carlisle)

Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many full-time equivalent staff were employed in his Department's human resources section in April 2020.

Answered by Luke Hall

As of 30 April 2020 the full time equivalent (FTE) staff employed in MHCLG’s human resources directorate totalled 62.6. This figure will include staff that do not work directly on HR functions, for example it will include an in-house shared service function and business management staff.

This calculation for FTE uses the ONS definition which is all directly employed payroll staff employed on that date.

First, I congratulate the Government on the overall budget increase to local authorities, which …..."

"I completely agree—the central theme of my speech is exactly that. We have to recognise the success of the south of England and also make sure that other parts of the country are equally successful and drive the productivity goals that we all want.
