Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what discussions he has had with Interserve on their decision to impose contractual changes with respect to pay dates to its staff contracted to work in his Department.

​We are aware that Interserve has been in discussion with some of its employees that may be affected by changing dates to payroll. We have been assured by Interserve that employees will not be detrimentally affected by this change of dates and Interserve have provided reassurance that staff will not have reductions in conditions as a result of this change.
