Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what the average hourly pay is of employees at each grade in the Prime Minister's Office identified as (a) White or White British and (b) from a black, Asian or other minority ethnic group.
The Prime Minister’s Office is an integral part of the Cabinet Office.
As was the case under the previous administration, officials are not compelled to declare their ethnicity. Statistically valid information about pay broken down by ethnicity is therefore not available
Diversity data on the declared ethnic background of Non-Executive Board Members and Government Board Members appointed since 2010 is not held centrally.
The Cabinet Office will shortly publish the report by Ethnic Dimension Research & Consultancy on "Identifying and Removing Barriers to Talented BAME Staff Progression in the Civil Service" and an updated Talent Action Plan.
