Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many cleaners are employed by his Department; and what the average salary is for cleaners.

Across the working buildings of 70 Whitehall, 35 Great Smith Street, Downing Street and Admiralty House, the Cabinet Office employs seven cleaners, all at grade AO. Our Facilities Management contractor, Mitie, provides a number of cleaners at a salary of their discretion.
