Written Question
Cabinet Office: Civil Servants
Tuesday 24th October 2023

Asked by: Ben Wallace (Conservative - Wyre and Preston North)

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many FTE civil servants have been employed by his Department in each year since 2015.

Answered by Jeremy Quin

Please see the Government Annual Civil Service Statistics published online to show how many FTE civil servants have been employed by the Cabinet Office.

https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/civil-service-statistics

From 2015 to present day the Cabinet Office has grown to absorb a number of other functions. For example, the whole of the Civil Service Fast Stream headcount now sits in the Cabinet Office although the large majority do not work in the Cabinet Office. The establishment of a Government Digital Service, Government Recruitment Service and functional specialities like the Government Commercial Function have all resulted in an increase to the number of FTE employed by Cabinet Office although value and efficiencies are delivered across the Civil Service.

The Cabinet Office is committed to driving efficiencies as directed by the Chancellor.
