Written Question
Wednesday 30th May 2018
Asked by:
Philip Davies (Conservative - Shipley)
Question
to the Department for Exiting the European Union :
To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, how many contractors have been employed by his Department for (a) up to one year, (b) between one and five years, (c) between five and 10 years and (d) over 10 years.
Answered by Suella Braverman
The Department for Exiting the European Union employed 37 contractors from April 2017 to April 2018. This is the latest date at which we have information for. This number includes agency staff and external expertise that were brought in to lead on discrete projects which would not ordinarily be performed by members of staff.
Information about the number of contractors between one and five years can only be provided at disproportionate cost.
The Department was formed in July 2016, contractors employed between five and 10 years and over 10 years are therefore not applicable to DExEU.
This information is available on our website within the Department’s monthly publication of workforce management information. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/department-for-exiting-the-european-union-monthly-workforce-management-information-for-2017-and-2018
