Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many civil servants in his Department are in the redeployment pool.

The function of the redeployment pool is to give appropriate support to employees who have become surplus as a permanent post no longer exists for them. The redeployment pool helps them remain in employment and provides priority access to vacancies before they are advertised across Treasury.

There are no employees in the HMT redeployment pool.
