Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to the Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation’s Annual Review, April 2021 to August 2022, whether the OFSI has expanded to around 100 staff.
OFSI has expanded to around 100 full-time employees, accelerating and enhancing the ambitious transformation programme it already had underway. HM Treasury and OFSI have been at the front and centre of an unprecedented financial sanctions response to Russia’s unprovoked and unwarranted attack on a sovereign nation, which brought war back to Europe.
