Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Joan Walley (Labour). It was answered by Gordon Brown (Labour) on Thursday, 7 December 2006 on behalf of the Treasury.
Lyons Review
- Question
- What discussions he has had with the Office of Government Commerce on the measurement of the wider social and economic benefits of departmental relocations under the Lyons review.
- Answer
-
I can announce that, since the Lyons report recommended 20,000 civil service relocations by 2010, 10,179 posts have already been announced for relocation. Some 1,200 of those posts are in the east and west midlands. The Lyons review presented evidence that movement of posts would offer positive economic and social benefits for the receiving destination. That is now the subject of a review that will be published in the new year.
