To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, pursuant to the Answer of 25 March 2019 to Question 234782 on Department for International Development: Secondment, what the length of secondment is for those 74 staff already deployed.
DFID continues to work to support other government departments’ increased resource demands as a result of the UK’s exit from the EU, whilst ensuring continued delivery of its core business. DFID is working closely with OGDs to match to urgent EU Exit resource requirements across government. Deployment periods are varied, depending on the nature of the work required but do not exceed the Government’s no deal response period.
