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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what percentage of workers employed directly by his Department belonged to a trade union in each of the last five years for which data is available.

The Department does not have a complete set of data for this information as we are not notified of individuals who may choose to pay their trade union membership via direct debit and as such is unable to answer your question.
