Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many bonuses were awarded to senior civil servants working at his Department and its agencies in each of the last six years; and what the total cost of those bonuses was.

As part of the Government's transparency agenda, Departments publish annual information on the number of awards and spend on end-year and in-year non- consolidated performance-related pay. Information for the Ministry of Defence can be found at the following address: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/mod-non-consolidated-performance-related-pay.
