Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many external consultants are employed in Defence Equipment and Support by his Department.
This question was answered on 21st July 2015
Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S) does not hold details of the number of consultants employed. DE&S negotiates contracts with consultancy companies to deliver a specific output at an agreed price. It does not specify the number of consultants to be employed to deliver those outputs as this is a matter for the contractor.
