Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether any financial assistance will be available to staff from the Department for International Development who are non-UK nationals who wish to become UK citizens or apply for new jobs in his Department.
Civil Service policy is that departments do not fund naturalisation application costs. Non-UK national staff are still able to work in the FCDO and to apply for new roles without applying for naturalization.
