Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many people his Department employs in Wales.
HM Treasury does not employ anyone in Wales. For the Chancellor’s other departments, HMRC has 3,510 employees in Wales, The Valuation Office Agency has 280 and the Government Internal Audit Agency has 20.
HM Treasury does however have a team dedicated to devolved issues which has strong working relationships with all three of the devolved administrations. In the case of Wales, this was recently exemplified by the joint agreement with the Welsh Government on their new fiscal framework.
