This information is not held centrally.

The Civil Service Management Code sets out, at paragraph 4.3.4, the requirement that civil servants must seek permission before accepting any outside employment which might affect their work either directly or indirectly. The applicable principles are those set out in the Business Appointment Rules. The Civil Service Management Code is published at www.gov.uk/government/publications/civil-servants-terms-and-conditions. The requirements are also mirrored in the Diplomatic Service Regulations.
