Department for Science, Innovation and Technology: Public Appointments
Asked by: John Glen (Conservative - Salisbury) Tuesday 15th October 2024 Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology: To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what (a) direct ministerial and (b) other public appointments to his Department and associated bodies have (i) been (A) removed from their posts and (B) asked to resign and (ii) made since 4 July 2024. Answered by Feryal Clark - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Science, Innovation and Technology) Departments do not routinely record and collect the reasons why appointees leave their positions, so are not in a position to answer this part of the question. Additionally, the reasons why an appointee has left their role is the appointee’s personal information and identifiable and would elicit GDPR considerations. I refer the Right Honourable Member to the answer I gave on Monday 9 September to Question UIN 2400. Additionally, since then Martha Lane Fox (Co-Chair), Poppy Gustafsson, Paul Willmott (Co-Chair), Jeni Tennison, Dr Anne-Marie Imafidon, Lou Cordwell, Aaron Maniam, David Eaves, Sarah Hunter, Lisa Harrington, Josie Cluer and Lord Richard Allan have been appointed as members of the Digital Centre Design Panel. An announcement containing further details is published here. Public Appointments are routinely published in the public domain using the Cabinet Office digital service and the sites of the Public Bodies concerned. |
