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

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what proportion of staff in her Department did not meet the minimum office attendance target in the latest period for which data is available; and what sanctions her Department issues to staff who do not meet this target.

The department does not centrally record data on staff who do not meet our 60% office attendance expectation, this is managed locally by line managers.

Failure to meet a reasonable request from a line manager can result in a sanction under our disciplinary procedure for failing to follow a reasonable management request.
