Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many payroll staff are employed in back-office functions in Ofqual; how many non-payroll staff are employed in back-office functions in Ofqual; and how many full-time equivalent (a) payroll and (b) non-payroll staff are employed in back-office functions in Ofqual.

This is a matter for Ofqual, the Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation. I have asked the Chief Regulator, Sally Collier, to write to the hon. Member and a copy of her reply will be placed in the Libraries of both Houses.
