Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, how many people holding security passes for other Government Departments are granted access to her Department's premises with that pass, by Department.

Civil Servants have to ability to work flexibly across government sites where there is a business need to do so. The issuing of all passes is controlled by the local Departmental Security teams who follow strict procedures and protocols. DCMS does not manage the local Security team for its main premises, that is done by HMT.

Therefore the information requested is not centrally held by the department.
