Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many of her Department's staff had a pay increase (a) above, (b) at and (c) less than one per cent in each of the last three years for which information is available.

This PQ can only be responded to fully at a disproportionate cost as data held includes other salary increases (e.g. promotion increases) besides the annual pay award increases. The average increase received by Home Office Staff was an average of 1% in each of the those years.

The attached table shows the minimum and maximum increases received by the majority of staff in 2015, 2016 & 2017. Some staff may have received higher increases as part of on-going pay reform.
