Departmental Degrees
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills pursuant to the answer of 26 July 2010, Official Report, column 604W, on departmental degrees, whether he has plans to collect information on the number of officials in his Department who have a qualification in an engineering or science subject.
- Answer
-
We have no plans to collect information on the number of officials with a qualification in a science and engineering subject. The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills holds a list of all officials who have identified themselves as part of the science and engineering profession. This ranges from officials in policy roles who have a scientific, engineering or technical background and wish to maintain their analytical skills, to specialists with qualifications and professional experience directly relevant to their current post.
