His Majesty's Government can confirm that:

Each government department is responsible for their own internal Ministerial and Permanent Secretary submission templates.

The Cabinet Office maintains a standard template for submissions to Cabinet Office Ministers and the Cabinet Office Permanent Secretary.

The template for both is the same and was revised on 18th October 2024.
