There were 28 direct entrants at Grade 7 in Resource and Strategy Group between 2015 and 31st January 2019. Of these, 21 were appointed with a salary above the minimum. It is not possible to disaggregate this further between male and female entrants or the years in which they joined the Department, as it might be possible to identify individuals.
