Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many full-time employees were employed in (a) the Case Resolution Directorate and (b) the Case Assurance and Audit Unit in each year of those bodies' existence.

The Case Resolution Directorate (CRD) employed a total of 1300 caseworkers in
40 regional teams during its existence. It is not possible to provide a
breakdown by each year that CRD was in existence.

The Case Assurance and Audit Unit (CAAU) employed 98 Full Time Equivalent (FTE)
staff in 2011, 134 FTE staff in 2012 and 224 FTE staff in 2013. FTE means that
part time employees are counted by the proportion of full time hours they work,
so that staff working half the time of an equivalent full time colleague would
count as 0.5 FTE.
