To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Twycross on 13 August 2024 (HL548), what equivalent occupancy data has been compiled since the general election; and whether they will place all post-election data that is held for each department in the Library of the House.

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Twycross on 13 August 2024 (HL548), what is their policy on full-time civil servants working a four-day week on full-pay; and whether the ‘right to switch off’ will apply to civil servants on their fallow workday when working a four-day week.

Departments are responsible for setting the terms and conditions of employment for their civil servants, in accordance with the rules of the Civil Service Management Code. Full time employees across the Civil Service generally work 42 hours gross (37 hours net) per week over 5 days. Some departments may have flexible working policies that allow employees to request compressed hours, where the same hours are worked, only compressed over a shorter period, with no change to pay. There are no flexible working arrangements that permit reduced hours or part time working in exchange for full time pay.

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Twycross on 13 August 2024 (HL548),  what is their policy on how often civil servants should work in the office rather than remotely.

Current Civil Service guidance requires Civil Servants to attend the office or work face-to-face with colleagues at least 60% of the time. There are no plans to change those requirements.
