Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many civil servants are employed in his Department to oversee the storage of personal protective equipment.
HM Treasury is in regular contact with DHSC as the lead department on PPE storage, as part of its role maintaining oversight of DHSC’s £178.5bn budget and financial performance. On a day-to-day basis the oversight of PPE storage is carried out by, on average, approximately 0.25 full time equivalent staff in HM Treasury.
