Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, when his Department’s current non-executive directors were appointed; what oversight officials of his Department had of the Ministerial appointments of those non-executive directors; and what assessment was made of the applicants' experience against the requirements for breadth and depth of experience set out in the Cabinet Office guidance on Departmental Boards of November 2014.

Departments follow the principles set out in Cabinet Office/HM Treasury ‘Corporate governance in central government departments: code of good practice.’

HM Treasury publishes the appointment and reappointment dates of non-executive directors, as well as their experience, in the Annual Report and Accounts. Information on the current non-executive directors can be found on page 57 to 58 of the 2019-20 Annual Report and Accounts.
