There have been no UK civil servants from DIT or UKEF who have been made redundant since April 2018, as per the provisions of the Civil Service Compensation Scheme, a statutory scheme made under the Superannuation Act 1972.

This does not include locally engaged staff employed by the FCO overseas who work on DIT's objectives.
