Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many officials in which Government Departments receive a level of pay greater than that of the Prime Minister; what the roles of such officials are; and when such officials were appointed to their current roles.
Salary details for senior staff in departments, agencies and non-departmental public bodies earning £150,000 and above are published annually. The most recent list is online at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/senior-officials-high-earners-salaries.
The Cabinet Office does not hold a central record of when these staff were appointed to their current role.
