Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, pursuant to the Answer of 20 March 2019 to Question 236571 on Department for International Development: Secondment, how many of the staff provisionally matched to over half of the 175 were from each directorate in that Department.
Staff are matched from a range of DFID departments, however many of the roles and matches are subject to change as the needs of requesting departments shift.
All potential matches are made following the principles that essential DFID business must continue and that we continue the lifesaving humanitarian work that we carry out around the world. This means ensuring that our 0.7% ODA programming is protected and will continue as planned.
