Asked by: Adrian Sanders (Liberal Democrat - Torbay)

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what the average time taken to process applications for redundancy payment is through My Civil Service Pension; and what steps he is taking to reduce the time taken.

Answered by Lord Maude of Horsham

Redundancy schemes under the Civil Service Compensation Scheme are covered by separate commercial arrangements between MyCSP Ltd and each individual employer.

The average time for completing these individual exercises is not collated centrally.
