Non-departmental Public Bodies

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Health pursuant to the statement of 14 October 2010, Official Report, columns 505-06, on public bodies reform, how many staff are employed by the Independent Advisory Group on Sexual Health and HIV; how many such staff will be transferred to (a) his Department and (b) new bodies; how many such staff will be made redundant; and what estimate he has made of the cost to the public purse of redundancy payments for these staff.

Answer: The Independent Advisory Group on Sexual Health and HIV does not employ staff and therefore there will be no staff transfers either to the Department or to the new Stakeholder Advisory Group. Any costs associated with the closure of the Independent Advisory Group are currently being assessed.
