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

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what training his Department has provided to (a) general civil servants, (b) fast stream civil servants and (c) senior civil servants on understanding the scrutiny and legislative roles of the UK Parliament; how many such courses have taken place; and how many civil servants have attended such training courses in each of the last five years.

There are no records of learning events delivered or undertaken by civil servants within the Department related specifically to understanding the scrutiny and legislative roles of the UK Parliament. We encourage staff to access learning materials available through Civil Service Learning.
