Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, pursuant to the Answer of 6 December 2022 to Question 97500 on Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office: Incentives, what the value was of non-cash vouchers awarded to staff working for his core Department as performance-related bonuses in 2022-23.

Performance related bonuses paid out as non-cash vouchers is a common practice across Government. The total bonus spend for 2022-23 is £11.131 million. We do not capture data for non-cash vouchers only, therefore this figure includes both cash and non-cash awards. This figure includes payments and award to both UK based and Country based staff.
