Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :
To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, how many staff in his Department are paid less than the London Living Wage; and what requirements his Department places on contractors to pay the London Living Wage to London-based staff.

There are no staff working for the Department who are paid less than the London Living Wage.
The Department does not hold information relating to the rate of pay for those employed by third party agencies or outsourcing arrangements as these would be agreed and held locally by the relevant organisations.
