(asked on 2nd May 2018) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many non-disclosure agreements his Department has signed with employees in each of the last five years for which figures are available.
The Civil Service’s policy since February 2015 has been not to use confidentiality agreements in settlement agreements on termination of employment. The Department’s approach is to not use non-disclosure agreements for settlement agreements and instead be open and transparent with agreement outcomes.
Based on the information available for the Department of Transport, including executive agencies, the number of non-disclosure agreements used are:
| 2013 | 2014 | 2015 | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 |
Total number of non-disclosure agreements his Department has signed with employees | Data not held | Data not held | Less than 5 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
