Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government how many people they have employed as part of the Civil Service Fast Stream in the last three years; and of those, how many have since left the Civil Service; and of those, how many cited low pay as a reason for leaving.

1,909 individuals have joined the centrally managed Civil Service Fast Stream schemes in the last three years - further data on Fast Stream recruitment up to 2021 is already published externally at:

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/civil-service-fast-stream-recruitment-data-2019-2020-and-2021

85 of these individuals have left the Civil Service. None of those who provided a reason for leaving through an exit survey stated this was due to pay and reward considerations though this does not necessarily mean it was not a consideration for them.
