To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what information his Department holds on the rate of remuneration for (a) cleaners, (b) security guards and (c) catering staff in his Department in (i) Greater London and (ii) outside Greater London.
Answered by Nigel Adams
Cleaning and security guard services provided to the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales are undertaken by outsourced providers under Ministry of Justice contracts.
Rates of pay for cleaners and security guards are determined by their respective employers and are not held by the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales or Ministry of Justice.
All employers are obligated to pay at least the National Minimum Wage and National Living Wage.
The Office does not have any in-house catering facilities.
